This has always been a local legend and I was surprised to see it make front page and actually be REAL.
It's highly ironic and to top it off, he's moving to Costa Rica! Bet it won't be five minutes before HE's telling THEM how to do things...
goldstategop,
Actually, you'll probably find folks here in the South to be the most hospitable in the world -- providing you don't come here and start looking down your nose at Southernors, and trying to push "the way we do it up nawth" on the folks here.
Really, that happens a lot. Northernors flee the highly taxed, highly regulated and screwed up areas up north to a fresh start in the South. But once here, they proceed to screw things here up. Look down on us Southernors and commence to telling us how to run things here.
I had a good example of this happen to me yesterday. I was in the Smokies, at a campground, crossing the road with a five year old holding my hand, on the way to the bathroom. A guy with a northern car tag and an attitude tried to run over me, I guess cause I wasn't moving fast enough and he just couldn't wait to get the 10 yards to where he was going.
What needs to happen to an idiot like that is a big burly Southern redneck needs to jerk his smart ass outta the car and proceed to rearrange his face and teeth. There really is no excuse for somebody being such an asshole.
And someone so miserable that they can't slow down a little and let a woman and kid cross the road (in a laid back vacation setting) really just needs to quit bothering with leisure, just stay up north and be a jerk till he falls over dead with a heart attack from his anger and stress.
When you get here remember a couple of things: always wave back, always smile back, say "yes ma'am and no sir" to those who are older than you (regardless of race) and you'll be fine! With regards to Southern cooking, be prepared to eat everything, and I mean everything, fried! ;0)
