I average a daily appearance. I'm from the upper left hand corner of Pennsylvania, Erie PA by Lake Erie. We are about 100 miles from 3 major cities, Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Cleveland.
The older cars are awesome. I can't do internal engine work and am not good with bodywork but I am a fairly decent mechanic with cars from the 60s and 70s. I can't even replace spark plugs on these new cars....can't even find them half the time.
The Dukes of Hazzard was so popular back then that it actually lowered attendance at Friday night football games across the country because it was before you could record them. I was 19 and never missed an episode. I was born on the day John Schneider turned ONE WEEK old!
As I mentioned in another thread it is so cool to have you here.
When they were trying to avoid tearing down the original farmhouse we had the grandson of the farm owner here on HN keeping us updated. How far are you from the original farm.? Any chance of seeing a picture of your car?
They did the best they could do.....but it was dramatically different. One reason I love the Georgia episodes so much is that the scenery looks like it does around me....even though Lake Erie is a long ways away.
Yes! Someone from Georgia! I think it's been awhile since we've had one. The HazzardNet just got a whole lot better. (not that you can improve perfection).
Tell us more about your love of the greatest show in history. How long have you been a fan? Favorite character? Favorite episode? (probably a Georgia one, right?). Ever met any of the stars? Have a lot of Dukes toys and collectibles? Do you have all 7 seasons on DVD? Tell us everything.
Out of reactions but your words are so true Garrett. It's a shame that kids growing up today will never know the fun we had. Most of them are slaves to a tiny screen glued to their eyeballs that is blocking their view of a wide world.
I'm the same way. I've only loved a few shows but Dukes is the only one that lasted a lifetime. Everybody was talking about it in 1979 and when I saw my first episode I was hooked. I'm not sure which one it was but it wasn't too long after the debut. I was 19 at the time. I'm 7 days younger than John Schneider.
