I lived in Dothan in the 1970s. A really fine city. There are a large number of murals on buildings in Dothan. One of them is of Johnny Mack Brown.
Another great athlete from Dothan was Richmond Flowers Jr. At one time, probably the best hurdler in the world. Also a star football player at Tennessee and later in the NFL.
Richmond Flowers Jr. Was the son of the Alabama attorney general. The dad was sent to prison in Alabama because of his support of civil rights for Negroes. The son was the very best sprinter in Alabama at the time. Junior went to Tenn. in order to play against Alabama and the evil corruption that sent his dad to prison. Oh yeah, Dothan, Alabama has got an incredible growing season. Vine ripened tomatoes are ready for harvest on June 1st. Junior hated what the political boses did to his dad!
I grew up in Graceville, Fl, just south of Dothan. I remember the Johnny Mac Brown movies on Saturday afternoons too.
