I got all the answers correct and won a free doughnut. TD has officially replaced Google.

Huey Long got Abe Mical elected Senator as a joke.
What a thoroughly interesting dude: Lebanese immigrant, athlete, crazy association w/ Huey Long, longtime doctor, WWII pilot

quote:The part about Huey long getting Abe Mickal elected Senator is true. You can look it up in the history books. It is a funny story. It is in many of the LSU history books as well as T. Harry William's biography of Long which is one of the greatest political biographies ever written. Many funny stories in there, several of which have to do with LSU football.
kind of a goofy thread w/ silly responses...
