Dane huntrz.....you are cracking me up......Where's Smokey? lol...
I guess Ill add another..
When we were remodeling our kitchen floor we ripped up the floor and subfloor both and needed to get rid of it. Well we decided to get a barrel and burn it out back, but that's not all .....it got so late it was time for dinner so we also decided to bbq. So I called my dad and said dad, you know your a redneck when you burn you kitchen floor and cook dinner on it all at the same time! lol....He still teases me about it.....

you know your wifes a redneck when she calls you up about picking up a roadkill fox, mine actually called me to see if i thought it would be fresh enough to get the hide soft tanned, i told her to get out and get real close to it, if you can put your nose within 10 inches of it and not puke it might be good enuf.

I have an undisclosed video of me and a buddy playing golf in TN. Falls Creek Falls SP. Well it was early Spring, and no one else was on the course except for tons of deer and turkey... We we had ourselves a real fun Tennessee Turkey Chase that day. Took that golf cart places it shouldn't have been, but what a blast...

JDawg and I picked up a dead deer on the side of the road one night (in June/July) and it had been there a few days (I had to drive by it everyday to work). We put it in the back of my Ranger and took it and put at the edge of a street leaning against a fence in front of one of his former neighbors houses. Propped it up, put a pair of sunglasses on it's head and a Marlboro in it's mouth with a newspaper taped between it's hooves (which were sticking straight out). She got quite a kick out of it when she went out at 2 am to pick up her daughter. She said the funnier part was when the City of Murphysboro showed up to get rid of it, 5 Murphy cops, a backhoe and a dump truck at 4 am.

Other than that the two of us have lots of other redneck things we've done but the statute of limitations has not run out on all of them yet so I'm shutting up now.

Maybe it's the various things I have hanging on fence posts to dry...Oh my there's so many redneck things around here...you'll see when we pull up at bragging rights II in our hundred year old dodge with the little plastic tub and crawl out...you'll all just roll...

I ain't denying I've done some redneck stuff (quite a bit actually). It's just that Huntrz's story made me forget my own. Has anybody else here ever jump started their car or truck off the garden tractor? How about using a tractor to get towed out after a little sight seeing? Notice the picture to the left?
<<---
It took a 4wd tow truck to get to me, and he had to use the winch to pull it back to where the cable would reach. Honest, the map and the gps said there was a road there. 40 years ago there was, but now it goes into a private lake. Driving at night I didn't see that the road wasn't there anymore till it was too late.

I don’t even know where to start. Lets see, last year in my collage speech class I did a vary nice demonstrative speech on tying fishing knots. The bad part is I used some rope(the stuff that comes with your tree stand) and a treble hook that is a foot tall with a 10inch base as my prop. In high school I would go to my teachers and tell them I was going to be “sick” on the Friday of deer season so I could get my homework. Carbondale won’t let you out to go deer hunting. Skipped school on our senior skip day, to fish a small bass tournament, not to go out drinking! Man I know there are some bad things I have done I just cant think of them.

07-17-2007, 23:36
I've not only used a garden tractor to jump start my truck i have also swapped the battery out of a garden tractor into a truck to be able to drive it. Once JDawg and I drained a garden tractors gas tanks into his Bronco II.
Using tractors to pull out a stuck truck ain't nothing new, did it several times.

Another redneck thing i've done is shoot road signs, yeah it's dangerous as hell and stupid but believe me it takes lots of talent. Jdawg was better at it though, then again he was also a good get away driver.

BAM

I had to "retrieve" my kiddo from Washington County Sherriff...for shooting road signs...his get away driver wasn't so good....

My pal and I stuck her Scout in a water way and manged to also stick all of Dad's tractors before we finally had to borrow one from the neighbor to get the whole mess out...

I think I figured out one of my highlights.....I always snatch up the snappers when I find them moving across the road......I spotted one, turned around to go get him and got to him just about the same time another fella did..we nearly went to the rocks over that turtle, and I finally just grabbed him and threw him the back seat, and sped off as fast as my supercharged bonneville would go!...That guy is still cussing me.....and pissed off snappers are not good for ones leather seats...
That fella should have never said, "what's a little girl like you gonna do with a turtle?"

hey i remembered some other things. two buddies and i were board one summer, we went to little Grassy lake with the big heavy john boat with the 9.9 and tried to tube. that didn’t work to well, finally one buddy left the tube out and just held on to the rope. it pulled him just under the surface, it was cool but he lost his shorts a few times.
this turtle thing reminded me of the time two buddies and i were headed home from school and passed this hippie dude pulled over in a mini-van. he was standing over this snapping turtle he had just hit. it wasnt dead just scraped up a bit. we got out and told the guy we lived in the country and would take it and turn it loose. we tossed it in the back of my 88 nissan hard body truck and left. turtle for dinner! ha we still laugh about that.

Nuttin like roadkill huh? lol..

I remember we were camping out at crab one day and my dad and my uncle's took his friend's boat out for a ride, well my dad was gone and gone and gone and then finally here they come all soakin wet.....(wish I would have had pics)
There was three of them in that little jon boat going across the lake and my dad stood up in the back while it was going and flipped it up and then it SANK!
My dad threw the old gas tank over to my uncle because he couldn't SWIM and then held on to the tip of the boat since his it wasn't even HIS! Finally they got it back to shore.....but that's not all
Then he dried everything out and had it running again and went for another boat ride the same night!!!!!...
Momma was worried then....:eek:

JDAWG is almost a full year older than me, we were each others best man in our weddings, been friends since I was 8 or 9 (I'm almost 27 he's almost 28) and we grew up in the country about 3.5 miles from town and about 1/4 mile apart. Fished, hunted, drank beer, worked, drank beer, partied, played football, drank beer, fished, drank beer and hunted together!

Now that's pretty redneck, fishing with a broken arm. I bet you even said "Hey y'all, watch this!" before breaking it, right?

OK, this one goes back a few years (about 40 year, give or take a few). Dad was away on business for the week and that was in the days when folks only had one car. My brother and I had just got back from the store and I decided to play with Dad's old air rifle in the garage. I tried catching the bb with my hand, and sure enough I did. There's still a small scar in my palm where it went in and you can still see the scar between my fingers where the doctor cut it out and sewed my hand up. Mom had to wait till our neighbor could get ready to drive us in to the doctor. I was more afraid of my mom than of being hurt, but she was relieved. Every year when Dad would be gone something would happen, and it had. I didn't even get yelled at for being so stupid. Sometimes I wonder how Mom ever survived our childhoods.

Is that redneck enough for ya?

07-23-2007, 00:33
OMG...I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU TRIED TO TO THAT!

Got another , when I was pregnant again.:o (that seemed to happen alot to me lately) we had to add onto the house. Well we decided to add us on a new master bedroom.....well I was out there and we put up plastic around the room because we were putting up knotty pine boards and wanted to make sure everything was sealed good........anyway we covered up everything.

Well my husband said cut out around the electrical outlets and so I did...umm with a (BIG KNIFE) :eek: and um like hit the sides big time :eek: and um got electrocuted big time.:eek: Scorched the Knife and then flipped the breaker thank god. B was on the other side of the room in shock!:eek: He was like UM what just happened ?????:confused:

Probably cause most of us have had a hook or two get us too. I was fishing on a swimming raft (one made from 6 empty oil drums as pontoons) along with a friend. He didn't check behind him and got two of the hooks of a treble on a spinner deep in the cartilage in my ear. Dad had to tell the doc how to get the hooks out (pushing each one the rest of the way through then cutting off the barbs). Of course I needed another tetanus shot. It seems I nearly always had a current one for sume reason or another.

BAM
07-23-2007, 09:00
That happen to us all the time as well.......one night at crab though my bro caught his own arm and set the hook (ding dong) anyway he came up to the campsite and you couldn't even hardly see the hook...my dad tried and tried until both my bro and my mom wear in tears.....so we had to head off to the E.R....and my bro had to be numbed for that one....

Also my cousin ran threw a trot line they were making over the clothes line and it went ALL the way through his nose! UGH.....that was the worst one!

OK, being a native kentuckian I'll share some of the redneck things I have done.

1) While in college at Murray State University a buddy and I would comb the roads of Land Between the Lakes for fresh roadkills...hey, we were broke college kids then and this was FREE meat. Gas was $.95 a gallon so driving around didn't cost much. Money saved was spent on beer.

2) We used to frog gig the backwater swamps and oxbows of the Clarke's River in western KY armed with nothing more than a gig, flashlight, some old jean shorts and sneakers...a large cooler full of cold beer, a bottle of cheap bourbon, and a couple cans of Copenhagen. The purpose of this game was to get to places no one else had the balls to gig...thus they were chuck full of big frogs...and snakes but we managed unscathed.

3) I worked as a wildlife technician one summer for the University of Florida. We worked in Okefenokee Swamp in south Georgia. I waded amongst gators and cottonmouths all summer for $7.00/hour...you believe that? But heck, I got to drive an airboat and ride in a helicopter so that was cool.

4) A good buddy of mine in western Kentucky and I would always hunt squirrels on opening day on a farm near his house. After we'd killed our limit we'd clean 'em and hand 'em to his mom to parboil. Before we knoew she'd cook us up one heck of a squirrel breakfast which consisted of southern fried squirrel, homemade biscuits, and squirrel gravy. My buddy would extract the squirrel brains and him and his dad would eat 'em in their scrambled eggs. I layed off the scrambled eggs and brains though...I'm not that big of a redneck!

5) I was in Alpha Gamma Rho fraternity at Murray State. Our nickname was "Alpha Gamma Rednecks". We had a formal dance at the end of the semester at a resort on Kentucky Lake. On the way home from it, I had a big chew of Levi Garrett in and spit it out the window. Well, the slop got caught on a wind and splatted all over my date's face and dress. Oops! I think I still have a bruise on my arm from where that girl hit me!

6) Last but not least, and once again while in college,...the most redneck thing I've ever done. I got "intimate" with a coed in a cattle pasture. We even woke up there...thankfully, before the farmer found us! The story is...I was driving this girl home from a frat party and she friggin' couldn't remember where she lived cause she drank too much of our hooch. Well, we are driving through the back roads southwest of Murray and next thing I know she's all over me. So, I pulled off onto an old dirt road and it wasn't about to happen in the little cab of my old Toyota 4 x 4. Sooo, we traversed a barbed wire fence and found a nice soft patch of fescue in the cattle pasture. To this day, I still don't know how we avoided the meadow muffins.

Oh, the good ol' days!!

OMG- COMB THE ROADS! lol...It would be nice if gas went back down to .95 we are spending 100 a week now.......:(

Anyway, bob my great aunt always chewed. Cracked me up! She lived to be in her 80's and was still chewing. She always wore a dress and had her hair done freq. but still had a big wad in her mouth......

Which reminds me of yet another redneck story......
It was time to take showers at the campground one night so we all took my dad's truck to the showerhouse. Well my dad always got done before we did. He decided to take a chew and use the pepsi can that was there. Well I didn't know it when I came out I was thirsty as could be and took a big ol swig of skoal and pepsi.....eww....talk about make you wanna throw up......After that I would always ask my bro and my dad, um did you use this? lol...

Oh gosh bambam, your story just reminded me of another one of my redneck stories. We went down to KY to visit my parents a few years ago and I had dipped all the way down while spitting in a Pepsi bottle. Well, I usually like to clean the trash out of the vehicle after a trip and I just happened to put the Pepsi bottle/spitoon on the counter. Well, my mom comes in from working out in the garden and takes a big ol' swig of Skoal juice thinking it was Pepsi! She liked to killed me...she was pi$$ed at me all weekend! Surprisingly she didn't vomit.

Bob, there were alot of girls from the equine and rodeo teams at Murray State that used to come to our frat parties. Alot of them dipped Copenhagen and could drink a man under the friggin' table. Also, I dated a girl back home whose mom dipped Skoal finecut wintergreen like it was goin' out of style.

Reached past my boat rod rack in the garage to get the power washer and ran that dude right past the barb in my left index finger. Tried to pull it out by hand and I couldn't. I though about that techique of using the line but the eye end was sticking way out past my finger and I was a little perturbed...Ended up taking pole and all over to my truck and getting a pair of needle nose to jerk it out. It was still a bear pulling it out. Tough skin or sumthin'. That dude bled like the devil for about 2 minutes and then stopped completely. Dang sore this mornin'. Told the kids and they figured I'd beat my record of biggest thing caught so far. Found it dang funny too durn them.

Well I don't know if its the most redneck thing I've ever done but it's one I can share whith you all . I was about twelve years old so this goes back 20 years are so . My dad took me to horse shoe lake to shoot doves they started to fly really well everyone in the field was shooting . I had a dove come in right over the top of the sunflowers I pepperd the dove and heard hey you SOB that was pretty low right then my gut completely flipped . That feeling you get like just before your in a car accident or something . About 30 seconds later I hear you SOB I'm bleedin . I whent over to go talk to the guy needles to say he was goin a little nuts he had a trickle of blood comeing out of his cheek where the pellet lobbed over the sun flower patch and caught him. I think if I wouldn't had been a kid I'm not to sure what he would've done. So one of the most redneck things I've ever done was shoot a guy dove hunting at horseshoelake. So if anyone knows an oleboy that caught a pellet at horseshoe from some kid please tell him sorry the stakes where a little to close together.

HEY! I shot a buddy of mine while dove hunting back in PA... I told him to stand one place, and he moved. When my wounded bird jumped, he was in the line of fire about 10 rows in the corn. I wouldn't have hit him if he stayed where I told him to... We squeezed a pellet or 2 outta him too ;)

I did feel bad about it, and am REALLY glad he wasn't seriously hurt....just goes to show you can NEVER BE TOO CAREFUL when handling a weapon.

So you're the ones who bought the last one! We went there with the same plan but they were all out of window air conditioners. All they had were the expensive roll-around room A/Cs and the "personal air conditioners" that you have to keep loading with ice cubes. I can tell you from experience that those ice cube units work great when it's in the low 90's, but can't overcome 100 degrees.

And Bob, you've joined the proud ranks of rednecks here. That's a mighty fine redneck A/C setup.

I stuck one in a tent door before. I worked good to keep us cool but I found out you have to watch so the cool air stays away from the air intake just below where the cool air comes out. If it starts recirculating the air it will cause the coils to freeze up. You can stick a chunk of cardboard under the cold air outlet to direct the air up and away from the intake. I guess it trys to recirculate because it was in such a small space. Also it seams like we had problems with moisture in the tent the next morning. But over all it was better than sleeping in you sweat all night. It helps if you put the door of the tent in a location which is lower than the rest of the tent so the water coming out the back drains away from the tent....

Yes, lol...We did the same thing fungus, All I could find at the time was two greeting cards..lmao so we stuck them in there. We also kept it on 66 the whole time that way it stayed cool in there. By sticking the greetings cards in there sideways, it blew the air up and it circulated alot better. Otherwise it was just kickin off after about three minutes. And it wasn't enough to get cool unless you sit right in front of it which would kick it off too.. We didn't have any moisture problems that I can remember. We noticed not to have anything around it or blocking it. Also we had ours sloped down in the back too so it would drain properly....It worked out really good for us and the kids since it was the middle of June. And we weren't the only ones in the campgrounds with the same idea...I kinda felt stupid and then when we drove around there were others..lol The only problem was my dad and my father-in-law didn't get their father's day cards until two weeks later!

11-09-2007, 07:48
Bam..just ask Bob to up your limit here...you've posted over a thousand pics on photobucket..that means you've posted a thousand like here? I only use photobucket for the ones I post to snap...and now if it's one's that I also post here....I use the image host from here...or vice versa...
Yikes! even I don't have a full photo bucket account..maybe you should ante up the 25 bucks a year and have a pro account...actually I don't think it's image number but rather size..if you resize them before you upload to photobucket to about 1024 on the long side...you should have room for closer to 10,000.....

BAM
11-09-2007, 07:58

Wanted to share this email I got. This looks like the right place for it!


We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It's time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God. If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I'd choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of. I hope I am one of those. If you feel the same, pass this on to your redneck friends. Ya'll know who ya'll are.

You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, "One nation, under God."

You might be a redneck if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if: You still say " Christmas" instead of "Winter Festival."

You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a redneck if: You treat Viet Nam vets with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an American flag.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and expect your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.

My dad got as much milage out of that story as he did out of the one where I fell into the feeder throwing hay off the tractor...and couldn't get out!

That story reminds me of a fella I knew up in Jersey Co. He kept coming home at night and his wife's tomcat kept marking the inside of their trailer up. One night he came home and Tom had left him a present of a larger nature on his pillow. He being of a cocktailing nature came home and laid down on same w/out turning on the lights. Needless to say, a battle between Mr Intoxicated and said Tomcat ensued w/a .22 rifle. 7 rounds later and a cat minus a tail, the trailer was riddled, the cat escaped and the trailer looked like a war zone and crime scene. Tom has left for more personable accomodations and owner is sans 1 cat w/ bad house manners. Now that...is when ya know yer a redneck..LOL If ya happen to live in Jersey Co, I will not mention any names..LOL

Since it is mushroom huntin season I shall share my most redneck story. In the spring of '97 or '98 I was a student a Eastern Illinois University. I lived on the first floor of Taylor hall, the "quiet lifestyle floor." After a nite out of partying with one of my Chicago buddies I decided to fry some morels I had found in my hometown of Effingham. He had never heard of such tasty treats and we both were severely suffering from the muchies. So I fired up the fry daddy in our floor study/computer area as not to bother my roomate. As the smell of hot oil and deep fried mushrooms whiffed down the halls, the building director who lived at the end of the hall awoke to the smell of what she thought was a fire. She ran down the hall screaming and began pounding on the floor's room assistant door. He awoke and they hurriedly tracked down the burning smell. They startled two very hungry and red-eyed fellows about to enjoy their first batch of mushrooms. They were not too happy and scolded me, saying they had nearly pulled the fire alarm to evacuate nearly 600-800 sleepy students. That being said they quickly went to bed more concerned with sleep so Terry and I could enjoy our early morning snack and a few keystone lights to wash them down with.:p

Here's my stupid human trick/redneck "thing".
A friend of mine joined the Army after high school. Once on leave from Fort Campbell he brought home some "supplies". Grenade simulators and field flairs.
We decided to run around in his van and provide a rolling fireworks display. In the end a field flair that was shot out of the passenger window (by me) didn't quite make it out of the van and caught me and the van on fire. By the time I got my shirt off of me (1 1/2 seconds) I was pretty much burned from the my head to my waist (sulfur from the flair mostly).
I yelled to my buddy to stop the van but he already bailed and I had to turn the ignition off and jam into park!
The van burned exploding all of the grenade simulators as we walked back to town to his sisters house. She doctored me up and I visited the doctor the next morning.
Fortunately I don't have any scares from it all.
By the way, the police and the folks at Fort Campbell put two and two together and figured out that my friend should no longer be in charge of supplies and was busted down in rank.
How I survived my teenage years over 30 yrs ago I'll never know!

Don't know if this would qualify as redneck but as kids used to catch chickens and put them to sleep by putting the head under the wing and rocking them back and forth .Gently set them down and they will sometimes sleep quite a while .

My redneck car fix: My faithful commuter car (1996 Saturn) decided to break on Lindbergh in front of Northwest Plaza about 9 month's ago. The shift linkage broke at the shifter. I was in 3rd gear when this happened so the 50 plus mile drive home was a long one!
I took the center column off and seen the problem, a ball and joint type connection broke. The Saturn dealer wanted $256 for the part, the whole linkage of course! Labor would be approx. be the same. Over $500 to fix a car that is worth about $500.
I rummaged through the garage and found that the end to a spark plug wire was similar to the ball and joint end that I needed. Well it is still working and the cost: a lot of cussing and some scraped knuckles. 313,000 miles now on the car. Jeff Foxworthy would be proud.

At Wonder Lake my stabilizer bushing finally gave out and the reel and reel seat went right in the water. Luckily the fish went to the shore and I was able to use the gaff to grab the line. There were more fish to shoot sooooo...since the duct tape was in the truck, out came the electric tape. :D

My cousin, from the city, visited me a few years ago and we were sitting on the deck of my house. He asked me what we did for fun down here. My brother was there. (gotta know him) He got up and caught a big horsefly and stuck a straw up its behind, I went and got one of my fishing poles with real lite line on it, and tied it to the straw and let the horsefly go out a little bit and real it back in. My cousin was falling out of his chair laughing. We told him we usually get a group of people over and try to race them around the house.......

Well enough to finish the day!

Chap that is funny. My Dad (when he was a youngun) and his buddies used to take a hair from the horses' mane and tie onto the horse flys and walk around with them like helium balloons.

I can't even begin to count the dumbass redneck things I did when I was a teenager and in my 20's.... I'm sure y'all have heard the phrase. "Hey man, hold my beer, and watch this chit.." Yeah, we really say that down here! :D

Remember back when I was 16, my best bud had a Jeep. 87 Wrangler. His passenger seat was screwed up, so he sent it in to be fixed. Well, his dad had remarried and moved down to Ridgeland S.C. The "Low Country". My buddy decided to stay in Ga to finish out high school, so he lived with his grandparents.

It was our summer break and his dad wanted us to come down and spend a couple of weeks to fish the middle marsh, Savannah River, and to ramble around the low country. My buddy wanted to take his Jeep, but it didn't have a passenger seat. So we took your standard folding metal chair, painted it black (To match the color of the jeep!) duck taped an old cushion to it, and placed it in the passenger seat location. Yours truly had to ride in it. So we took off on the 4hr ride to S.C!

It worked, but the rattling sound from that chair stayed in my head for a week afterwards! And another week after the ride back home!

:D

That's one of the G rated redneck things I've done. ;)

Hmmm where to begin. 1 trying to beat spawning carp with a stick didn't work but was fun. 2 getting hooked by a flathead I was hogging (irony the flathead caught me). 3 forgetting about a ffa formal banquet. The instructer called us to remind us,we were catfishing with shad guts at the time and we were late so we went straight there smelling like shad guts and catfish. We were wet and bloody from head to toe from the shad. Needless to say we were sent home. Everyone was in formal dress except us. Lol. 4 shooting fish with a sling shot hahahaha

Oh it was. And our leader wasn't happy. I was the treasurer and my buddy was the secretary, at least we showed up right. Oh I got another diving in the river after someone shot a cement block I won't name any names (gretchen). Lol. The funnest one was trying to get carp with a stick though.

When we we're teenagerss, we used to go on what we'd call an expedition. This involved a fair amount of alcohol, basically anything you could carry, so not much beer, but the strong stuff. It would take place in January or February in northern Wisconsin on a trout stream. The object was to walk down the stream on the ice. Now, the stream was probably usually no more than 2 feet deep, and had many little rapids areas that would not freeze. In other places, the ice would be extremely thin, and you would fall through about up to your knees. This became less problematic as more alcohol, which was traditionally referred to simply as "courage," was consumed. When the person who happened to be at the front of the line would reach a spot of open water, he would yell, "more courage," take a swig, pass the bottle to the person behind him, and run across the open water. Once he made dry ice, the next person would repeat the process, and so on, untill everyone was across. An expedition would usually end either with a make-shift fire on the bank or a cold stumble home through the woods.

Just stumbled upon this thread...got to revive it.
1. Two weeks after buying a new truck I got it stuck crossin a dry creek...well not too dry. Had to call my buddy who lived 1/2 mile away to come pull me out. Just so happened there was a wedding at his house that day, but the redneck style. They got married in his yard holding beer over a burn barrel, wearing hoodies and carhart jackets. The great part was that getting my truck pulled out turned into the wedding reception!;)
2. Shortly after buying my first house, needed to get on the roof. Didn't have an extension ladder yet, so I did would any red blooded redneck would do. Backed the truck partially into the garage and put my 6' step ladder in the back of the truck. Worked like a champ, and I still don't see the problem with it, but my neighbor came out quick offering his ladder!
3. Tried to shoot small propane bottles from a distance with a deer rifle to make them explode. When they didn't explode, layed a road flare close to the bottle and went back to shooting. Worked like a champ! (Don't try this)
Thats enough for today :D

We used a deer antler shed as a pull start handle for our jon boat one time when we pulled the handle off.

Me and the misses were headed back to the gulf coast one day and decided to stop and have a drink at a place in Copiah co. well we got a little inebriated and as we were leaving got into an argument over something stupid. Next thing i know i had a gun to my head by a real redneck and the sherrif was on his way. They arrest us for public drunk. I had my 90 lb. boxer in the van mind you, so they take us in and tow my van dog and all to the jail. Well in Miss. you have to have a bail bondsmen to get out of jail, bounty hunters aren't allowed in il. so they don't want to touch you. Meanwhile they let the miss put the dog out in the k-9 units out back and lock him up too. Long story short me the miss and the dog did 36 hrs. hard time (the only light complected people there) $1400.00 later we left Copiah co. never to return.
