Most Redneck thing you've done

[CatDaddy]

I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express one nite.

That doesn't make you a redneck, it makes you a doctor and an airline pilot!

I always thought it would be "neat" to be an airline pilot and pay for a place for wayward stewardesses to frolic and sleep within my domain.

This isnt the most redneck thing I ever have done, but the one that still gets brought up from time to time. I had my wife put polaroids of me with a nice deer I had taken in our Christmas cards , It was great . Gives you an idea of how long it was when it was polaroids

For real: Microwave left over pizza until hot (ish): Heat a skillet (hot) with some olive oil while the microwave is still "whirring": Reduce heat, throw a slice in the pan and treat it like a grilled cheese without the flip.

Thank me by reading NDA threads with some beers and the perfect slice of pizza.

You could also shop for wide assed side Dodge mirrors and a dumb assed vertical exhaust for your dumb assed superfluous "dually"; while enjoying an amazing treat.

Roll coal:

Sorry: What is a magnesium wheel? I understand lighters and toys. This sounds industrial?...

1960's-early 80's "Mag Wheels" on hot rods and muscle cars. "Mags" were made of magnesium.

This is more of a confession.
The early 60's drug a large barn ropes between 2 vehicles a couple hundred feet apart though soil bank kicking up Sharp Tails. The shooters rode on the hood or walked between the vehicles.

Yep, gramps told stories of doing the same back in the soil bank days for birds and (the very few) deer.

You know you are old when you know what soil bank is/was

Mom told us stories about when she was younger of how grandpa in a heavy snow winter and a warm spring would go north of the farm to Egg Coulee creek and pitch fork northerns into a gunny sack that would swim up the creek to spawn from Buffalo Lodge. Also about how a bunch of people would get together for jack rabbit round ups.

Back in the day every household had at least one gunny sack full of gunny sacks .

It was sooo fluff'n fun. Pheasants were king in Pembina County!

On a serious note. The soil bank back then did not seem to be as 'weedie' as the CRP is today.
At my age my memory is a little sketchy. So I maybe wrong.

Back in early 80's I took my grandpa out to the fish house on Jmst Res on the north end. That still existing one building use to be their old farmstead. He reminisced about when they use to come down to the creek ( pre dam days.) and pitch fork northerns. He was just like a little kid telling the story, you could see the excitement in his eyes. Great memory. . .

I’m waiting for someone to say they got their sister knocked up

I remember my Dad and Uncle using pitch Forks on Northerns on the James River at the Ypsilanti Dam. That was mid 60's

Ordered new couch and loveseat and it will be delivered Friday
Gave away our old ones this evening

Does this qualify for redneck?

In the 1970s there was a western art museum by the refinery exit in Mandan…for some dumb reason the place had a huge fiberglass King Kong statue…we thought Kong was an insult to our fine community, so we shot a few arrows in his chest one night in Bo Duke fashion…I think the gorilla ended by Cooperstown…

It was on the corner of Hwy 3 and Hwy 52 on the south side of Harvey for quite a few years. Seems to me it was just from the waist up in Harvey, not sure how it was in Mandan.

I was probably about 14, so this would be in the mid-60's. An elderly friend of my dad didn't use a pitchfork. he used a 220 Swift. Didn't have to shoot the fish, just come close and the concussion would send them floating up and then he netted them.

In my many times of my youth driving my old 83 monte across the border way too drunk to drive home.
