Hey, we’re not all like that. In fact, statistically none of us are. That’s why it’s news. PC pops up in surprising places sometimes, though. It’ll be hammered down, don’t worry.
Bluegrass was invented in Whiting. I wouldn’t have thought so, but that’s what Bill Monroe said. Of course, he was only a Kentuckian and so perhaps not up to Charles’s standard.
There is no “whoo” in Rocky Top. I hope the Indianaians at least got that part right….because the sorry ass fans here ON Rocky Top have lost their way.
Considering that Tennessee is a dry state by default (you mayn’t have booze unless your local nanny/mammy says you may), I’d just keep a bashful quietness.
I expected the story to include the fact that Rocky Top is a copyrighted work, and that the holders of the copyright have been known to go after people.
But no, it appears the principal is just an idiot.

I have been to Indiana many times. The whole state isn’t worth getting your boots dirty over. I say leave them to their ignorance.

But I guess the not-so-thinly veiled reference to killing federal agents looking for the moonshine is just fine?

Go for it! Did’nt a lot of Hoosiers in blue coats invade Tennessee during the War of Northern Aggression? Turnabout is fair! 🙂

The Rocky Top part confused them. The highest point in the whole state is an overpass on I-65.

I suggest attacking before Tam gets back, just to be safe.
