Great story, made this old Viet Nam Vet feel young again.

I am amazed that are these assholes here that take this occasion to put down the brand of beer rather than celebrate the brotherhood and love shown by these men.

Glad y'all enjoyed it. Don't worry about the assholes, they're just the price of doing business on the internet. Besides, they chisel away at their own souls, so payback will be a bigger bitch than they even remotely expect - God is not amused.

What got me about the video was the guy who spoke about how blown they all were that someone actually still gave a damn about them. Made the whole thing worth it. Also how so many others, especially pilots, made sure he got to his buddies. I mean after all, they were a little busy, but they all saw how important this really was.

There’s no place that I’d rather be than right here
With my rednecks, white socks and blue ribbon beer

The bar-maid is mad ‘cause some guy made a pass
The juke box is playin’, there stands the glass
And the cigarette smoke kinda hangs in the air
Rednecks, white socks and blue ribbon beer

A cowboy is cursin’ the pinball machine
A drunk at the bar is gettin’ noisy and mean
And some guy on the phone says, “I’ll be home soon, dear”
Rednecks, white socks and blue ribbon beer

No, we don’t fit in with that white collar crowd
We’re a little too rowdy and a little too loud
There’s no place that I’d rather be than right here
With my rednecks, white socks and blue ribbon beer

The semis are passing on the highway outside
The four thirty crowd is about to arrive
Rednecks, White Socks and Blue Ribbon Beer
Johnny Russell

The sun’s goin’ down and we’ll all soon be here
Rednecks, white socks and blue ribbon beer

No, we don’t fit in with that white collar crowd
We’re a little too rowdy and a little too loud
There’s no place that I’d rather be than right here
With my rednecks, white socks and blue ribbon beer

There’s no place that I’d rather be than right here
With my rednecks, white socks and blue ribbon beer

I wish I was amazed. The Internet hosts more pubic lice than the Blue Oyster Bar, which is probably where some of these dropkicks are posting from. It's a wonderful uplifting story with the negative comments saying more about the poster, than the post.
