Teen reunites with pet rooster after losing it at Alabama Cracker Barrel

BTW, does anyone doubt that in their reenactment, the South won and they have to draw straws to see who is made to play the Union soldiers?

I have never ate at Cracker Barrel and I am from Alabama.

At a Cracker Barrel in Alabama.

Good thing it wasn’t at a Chinese restaurant or that rooster would have ended up in a stir fry within minutes.

Oy!

This is by far one of the most redneck things I've ever read.

"Cracker" is an apt description.

I swear to God I thought this was an article from The Onion

R6 Not totally redneck because it didn't involve beer or guns although it did involve a Cracker Barrel and a truck.

I love stories about boys and their cocks.

I would have preferred it to be at a Waffle House.

Cullman, Alabama is just about 10 bunny-hops away from the home of the man who was arrested at the US Capitol with the suitcase full of Molotov cocktails and an arsenal of weapons stashed in his pickup truck (Lonnie Coffman). Still, I like chickens and I like 18-year-olds. I'm glad nothing bad happened to Johnny Reb's cock.

What did he order at Cracker Barrel?

Can this story be anymore gothic southern white trash?

^Nobody got 'ran' over by a train...

In NYC, our pets are rats.

And what exactly is your problem with bunnies r12?

Wrong R1. Civil War reenactments in the south are no different than the ones they have in the north. They are run exactly as the history books say things originally happened. And yes, they do Civil War reenactments up north too.

18 posts and no Count Bessie jokes?

Who is Count Bessie? Am I late to this party? Make one, fool.

Cullman, Alabama is the hometown of the racially ambiguous Mr. Channing Tatum!

Any pic of his cock?

Channing Tatum is white AF he's not racialy ambiguous.

Not was it a pet rooster but also a lover. Keep in mind, we're talking Alabama here.

R2 I live in Birmingham and I've never eaten at one either.

But, to really make this Southern Gothic, his girlfriend would need to a cousin and he would need to have a biblical sounding name. Thomas doesn't seem appropriate.

Farmer John Watson drove with Peep to Birmingham where the rooster reunited with Ramsey.

“I believe in paying it forward,” Watson told The Cullman Times. “Yes, it was ‘just a chicken,’ but it was his and he clearly cared for it.”

Malachi?

Ezekiel?

The cock will rise again!

I'm glad he got the rooster back, but what do you actually do with a pet rooster? They're not exactly brimming with personality.

r26 Every word of that was in the original post.

TIMMAY!

R30? and it was so funny I posted it again.

America. February 2021.

Incredible.

OP R1 Not all Civil War reenactors wish to revise history. There are actually very practical reasons why one might choose one side over the other. For instance, the North had actual full military uniforms, and because of that, it's more expensive to play for that side. At least initially. The South had uniforms, but also had many recruits that more or less threw their own things together, creating their own versions of the uniform.

These poor people, if it's not one thing, it's another.

You missed getting arrested for insurrection, but sadly, you lose your cock.

R35 wins the internet today. 😆😆😆😆

I know all you sophisticated, well-healed, well-pedigreed posters here find this story typical of "rednecks" and "white trash."

I, for one, think it's pretty cute and funny. The guy even admits ' "and it was very hard for me to say this with a straight face, even though I was panicking: ‘Do you have cameras in the parking lot? I think someone stole my chicken,'” Ramsey recalled.'

R29, roosters have unique personalities, and they can be very friendly.

R38 Handsome cock and the bird is good looking too.

I had friends who kept a pet goat, and they loved it as much as anyone has ever loved a dog or a cat. They just adored it, and it adored them.

We should have let them all go in 1861, including their chickens.

R4, yeah, because white Americans never eat chicken

Civil War re-enactors are a strange bunch.

People surprise themselves by becoming very attached to chickens and roosters. They're little dinosaurs with their own personalities, and can become very attached to their humans. I'm glad they were reunited.

I thought Lil Peep was dead.

Teenage boys should never be denied access to their cocks.

R40 there’s a guy who lives in my town who has a pet goat.

When I first moved here I would see him taking the goat for a walk on a leash. The very first time I saw it, I did a double take, “ did I just see what I thought I saw.” I haven’t seen him walking around town in years, but I know he still has pet goats (he’s on my town’s FB page and he posts pics once on a while). Sadly, he’s probably the quirkiest thing about my little town in Northern NJ.

Ever read The Power of One?

That’s a great novel with a chicken and a boy.

So is the Hoboken Chicken Emergency, and I think the boy from A Christmas Story is in the movie too.

Given a choice between rooster and chicken...well, do you even have to ask at this point?
