Ok, he had relatives that went to Rummel. This really had nothing to do with my original point.

Missouri launched a spaceship full of concrete at Oklahoma several years ago. That's all I got.

The Navy’s 1890 Cedar Key Coup
In 1890, the tiny island town of Cedar Key had a tyrannical mayor, William Cottrell, who ruled like a dictator, even forcing random citizens to head-butt each other at gunpoint. After he assaulted a federal customs inspector, President Benjamin Harrison dispatched a U.S. Navy cutter with armed sailors to depose him in a pre-dawn raid. Cottrell fled but later died in a shootout. It’s one of the rare times the U.S. military overthrew a local official on American soil.

How old are you? Only asking because if you remember watching Herman play at lsu, this was brought up almost every five minute on the TV broadcast.

Maple Hill Cemetery. It was fun to take your girlfriends there. Also Sally Carter's grave.

The shape of Copiah Co. MS. The dip into Lincoln Co. There was a large sawmill there. The owner of the sawmill said he wasn’t going to have his business in a county named after a yankee president. So they created that dip for him to have his sawmill in Copiah Co.

I grew up in Tulsa and used to drive past that thing on a regular basis whenever we'd go to the lake.
Never stopped there, though.

In April 1995, a 55 ton limestone boulder, broke loose from the river bluffs by spring freeze-thaw cycles, rolled down the hill and into a house, landing in the bedroom.
The real crazy thing is, in 1901 a boulder rolled down the hill and into a house that stood in the exact same spot, killing a woman asleep in her bed, but not her husband by her side.

He won the lottery that day! Damn, one never knows how important it is staking a claim to a certain side of the bed

Kentucky still has an active law on the books from the 1800s that you cannot carry an ice cream cone in your pocket.
—Even weirder, there were no ice cones in the US til the early 1900s, so the OK legislature must have been proactive

Edwin wasn't a convicted felon when he beat Duke. That happens about 10 years later.

Jack Daniel’s died after angrily kicking a safe and hurting his toe, leading to the blood infection that would be his demise
In Tennessee, it’s against the law for students to hold hands while at school as this is considered a “gateway” sexual activity
The lost sea is the largest underground lake in the us

The first cocktail, the Sazerac, was invented in New Orleans.
The evolution of the Sazerac began with Antoine Amédée Peychaud, a Haitian-born apothecary who migrated to New Orleans sometime during the Haitian Revolution. Peychaud opened up his own drug store around the end of the 1830s (the exact year is up for debate), where he sold his own bitters to an eager client base. He also mixed his signature product with brandy in an egg-shaped cup called coquetier, a name that is often falsely attributed to the etymology of the word cocktail.
New York and London both try to claim to be first, but we know better!
