What is a Parrot Head?

This is a question that I asked multiple times to Parrot Heads before becoming one myself.  This is a common question that everyone asks when they first hear the phrase.  For me the best answer to this question is on back of my Lone Star Parrot Head Club that I received today.

It says-

We are Parrot Heads because:

We love the ocean.

We love our planet.

We love to have fun.

We are not afraid to be silly.

We are not afraid to act foolish.

We are not afraid of love.

We like scantily clad members of our favorite sex.

We like playing in the sun.

We like singing songs that say all of these things.

We believe the best things in life are free.

We believe sharing the best things makes them better.

We believe in the innate goodness in all of us.

We know shared joy is increased.

We know shared pain is lessened.

We know a good friend has value beyond measure.

It just so happens, that Jimmy Buffett sings about all these things.  So, we are not Parrot Heads because we are Jimmy Buffett fans, we are Jimmy Buffett fans because we are Parrot Heads!

In 2011 the lone Star Parrot Head Club Members raised and donated almost $44,000 to our many charitable organizations and volunteered 1,500 hours of service in our communities.
