DaneyDuke Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 Did you know the creator of DOH participated in both reunion movies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meadowmufn Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Yes. I met him on the set. He thanked me for keeping Dukes alive online. This was back when I was running the Hazzard County Sheriff's Department, precursor to HNet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Wow, I'd sure love to meet him. I've always wanted to thank him for creating Dukes. Does anybody know how to contact him? I suppose I could google it but that sometimes has limited success when trying to contact somebody. Most of the time when I think of the Dukes of Hazzard I forget to give him the credit he deserves since I'm so wrapped up in the fantasy of the show and its characters. Uncle Jesse might be my hero but Gy Waldron is worthy of that status as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're probably already aware of this, but for those reading the thread who are not - the movie "Moonrunners" was Gy's first effort at the telling of this lifestyle. Moonrunners was edgy, gritty, and somewhat dark, perhaps truer to Rushing's experiences but less suitable for television. Aw heck...Mufn, we need to do a page on the Moonrunners movie. Add it to the never-ending project list. Anyway, back to Jerry Rushing. I've had the pleasure of speaking to him a couple times, he's been at some Dukes shindigs in the past. For many years now he's been a reformed man. In his youth, he was worth avoiding by his own admissions. And drawing on my own personal insights, I'll say this. If you take the person who Rushing eventually became, and combined it with some of the exploits of his past, you have a true living "Duke."

If anybody sends that Gy a facebook message tell him to visit us here on the best website on the internet.Having the man who started it all visit us, would be quite an honor.
