Bubba’s New Best Friend
Posted by 9iron on 04/01 at 12:24 PM
Mr Pennington was enjoying his coffee and adult conversation (his table mate was in no way an elected official), when to his dismay what he believed to be a semi trailer truck pulled into the parking lot. In actuality, it was only Bubba riding his ‘Big Foot’ golf cart with matching side exhausts, fender skirts, gun rack, and personalized Bobby Cox bobble head doll. With an exclamation of “who/what the hell…?” he was informed that it was merely Bubba returning from checking his fish baskets in Line Creek.
Surely, this far west into Georgia there would be no reminders of his former neighbors from Pine Ridge, but to Jim’s chagrin Bubba’s entrance was topped with a loud “Where’s that high fallutin’ city feller from Hartsville?” After exchanging pleasantries, Bubba offered a mess of redbreasts and catfish saying that he would be happy to pour them in the foot of his car, and he didn’t care if Jim forgot his bucket. Bubba also thought it was considerate to invite Jim over to a chitlin supper on Saturday, but Jim declined with the explanation that he had to return to Hartsville to settle affairs.
For those of us long time residents of our fine little golf cart city, we welcome Jim and his family with open arms in sincere hopes that he won’t get too upset if Bubba decides to have a spring hog killin’.
Glad to hear Jim is in good company.
If Bubba visits Murrells Inlet, Jana Banana will take him for some good seafood…. sans catfish.
Glad to see this post, and will try to add more too… although mine are not quite as amusing as the 9iron!
