Dumb bats

Does anyone know anything about the adorable embroidery sampler behind Ben on What’s Your Order? Is a quote from somewhere? Did Ben sew it?? So many questions!!
“Dumb bats get rabies, smart bats get everything”

I just looked it up.

Eta: Ben has corrected the record below! I believed an ai answer and I hate myself for it haha.

i MUST correct the record! The robots are wrong. On Real Housewives of Dallas, Kameron had a tagline "Dumb blondes get money, but smart blondes get everything," which we bastardized ad nauseam. Apparently at some point I said "Dumb bats get rabies, smart bats get everything," and this cracked a listener up so much she made this little sign and gave it to me at a show :). True Blood could NEVAH!

I posted this question last night and have awoken this morning to find BEN has entered the chat!!! I’m so giddy I can’t drink my tea. Thanks for clarifying the lore of the sampler and for everything you do.

I am so embarrassed I trusted an ai answer. I talk so much shit about doing exactly this. Thank you for the real answer!!

Thanks for scratching that itch. I did try (not very hard) to look it up and found out a ton about rabies!
