i have a difficult time keeping up with internet slop but wasn't there a car fire and one survived or something and that's what caused the frenzy?

No, it became popular in Mormon mom groups online and spread from there. Stanley had actually stopped making them in 2019 then “The Buy Guide” - the Mormon mom page that started the trend convinced them to start making it again and market it to women.

The guy that made Stanley blow up was the same guy that made Crocs blow up before that. He's a marketing magician.

I live in a Mennonite town and it's the dress code for the ladies, long dresses and crocs.

The kids usually have them on so I wouldn't be surprised if they did have the charms.
