This gem from YouTube shows the passion and dedication of Dukes of Hazzard fans who gathered in Hazard, Kentucky, in 1981. Some folks call this the first, true Dukes fan event and they may be correct.
Much has changed since 1981. Sorrell “Boss Hogg” Booke is no longer with us. Nor is the terminally ill child in this video, who referred to herself as “JoJo P. Coltrane.”
What remains, is the passion and dedication of Dukes of Hazzard fans around the world, of all ages, of all walks of life. We are fortunate that we have many cast members still with us, who are willing to meet and greet fans at appearances and events. People like Ben Jones, James Best, Rick Hurst, Catherine Bach, Sonny Shroyer, John Schneider and Tom Wopat. Who would have thought, that 32 years after The Dukes of Hazzard hit the air, people would still be talking about Cooter, Rosco, Cletus, Daisy, Enos, Bo and Luke? Or lining up to meet them whenever the opportunity arose?
In the upcoming days we will be posting more news and info about upcoming cast appearances. For now, enjoy this look back in time. This is what it was like – and is like – to be a Dukes of Hazzard fan.
Ever wonder how it looked when John Schneider and Tom Wopat became Bo Duke and Luke Duke for the first time? Here’s an early look at The Dukes of Hazzard, through a screen test in 1978. While this exact scene never shows up in an episode, the plot elements sound familiar to “Daisy’s Song.” You’ll also notice a little more cussing and a slightly edgier feel, which was true to the first few episodes.
Tom Wopat will be responding to questions from fans tonight only starting at 11pm EST (8pm PST) on his official Twitter page, http://twitter.com/wopatofficial. Make sure you check it out!
In just a few short weeks, the limited run of The Dukes Animated Series DVD is sold out. The Dukes cartoon proved to be quite popular with fans and is no longer available on the Warner Brothers site. We’ve put in an email to our contacts to clarify if The Dukes Animated Series dvd will be available in the future or if it’s gone forever. Hopefully, it’ll be back. In the meantime, if you want a copy, your best bet is to keep an eye on our Dukes of Hazzard auctions to see if someone puts theirs up for sale.
Once we have more information, we’ll let y’all know!
