“...after a farmer lopped off his head with an ax but left his brain stem, a jugular vein and one ear intact.”

Boudreaux: “Wow, how did he taste?”

Thibodeaux: “Delicious!”

My brother actually visited this town and saw the monument. The rooster even has his own website.

Is this the one where the rooster died when the farmer took it to show at some county fair but forgot the special tube to feed it.

Mike was decapitated in 1945 & died in 1947. Yet, this is the 12th Annual Festival.
It took over 50 years to become event-worthy; and the festival isn't tied to the date of his decapitation {September} or of his demise {March}.
