Stichkov Welcomes Tourists with Sheepskin Cap and Hooded Cloak
Bulgaria's most popular football celebrity Hristo Stoichkov and trimmed grannies, instead of majorettes, opened Summer Season '2005 in the resort town of Bansko. Stoichkov intended to land in the resort on a helicopter, but his plans were frustrated by the thick fog and he arrived by an offroader. "I shall congratulate the ladies first," he said on entering the local community center. A few cheerful grandmothers, donned in traditional for the region of Bansko costumes, were waiting for him in the first row. Some of them were picking wool; others were wounding wool on their distaffs. "That's what I call a craft, an art. You are looking good. Well done!" Stichkov praised them. The grannies could not refrain from throwing a hooded cloak on Stoichkov's shoulders. And they also put an astrakhan hat on his head. Hristo gave a hearty hug to the pensioners and asked the cameramen to take a picture of them as a keepsake of their meeting. This is how our resort should be advertised to the tourists, local people were whispering to each other. Hristo showed a lively interest in the craft of 2 guys "wood-carvers". The exhibition of fleecy rugs and rugs, made by handy local craftsmen, was also of interest to Stoichkov. The exhibition was part of the celebrations of the local traditions of Bansko region. The organizers presented Stoichkov with a wooden casket. "Being an honorary citizen of Bansko, I shall contribute to the development of the town. It is true that here is a nice place for holidaymaking even in the summer. All is basking in greenery; the visitors may enjoy beautiful mountain landscape as well as an authentic and traditional atmosphere," Stoichkov said. Later, the celebrations continued with an exhibition of culinary masterpieces in the Tanne Hotel and a review of traditional for the region national costumes of the 18th century. Cheerful grannies marched in procession, donned in sleeveless dresses, overskirts and kerchiefs.
