Miss Cougar USA Crowned in California
RAWWR
In one of the most anticipated pageants of the year, the nation's finest cougars gathered in Palo Alto, CA, to determine who would be crowned Miss Cougar USA. It was a cat-battle for the ages.
Well ok, not really. The event was sponsored by The Society of Single Professionals and looks like it turned more into a seminar of "how to have a healthy relationship with a young man" than a mob of older women looking for fresh meat.
There was of course a Cougar Ball, where over a hundred cubs (younger men) arrived to dance and fall prey to the single women. But according to eyewitness reports, the men outnumbered the women 5 to 1. It makes you wonder who exactly was being hunted.
One such bystander, who was staying at the hotel the event was taking place at, was surprised by how many cubs there were. "I've never seen so many useless 20-year-olds in my life," he said. "This is a uniquely American phenomenon."
And the winner of this American phenomenon? Gloria Navarro, 42, a suburban management consultant from Redwood City. "It's a new beginning for me," she said. Navarro recently divorced from her husband of 20 years and is looking to change her life.
"I went from soccer mom with short hair, flat-heeled shoes and fanny packs to cougar. I believe every woman has a cougar in them - someone who doesn't need a man for anything other than companionship."
