Loved Dixie. I played against Scott Dean in SEC. Awesome time, balling all day. Milkshakes, ping pong. Tours. I love sweat!

Best tour of my camp days...a group of guys got up on stage and sang D-I-X-I-E to the tune of Bingo. They didn’t get past the X because of all the laughing in the auditorium...so one of them closes it out by shouting “you all have little dicks.” End of tour.

That person who finished the tour with the “dicks” line would go on to become a very well known high school basketball coach in the BR area.

were more all purpose gyms with the removable carpet flooring


I've spent all my time reading this thread trying to imagine a carpeted floor you could play basketball on

Attended 87-91. Family friend was a camp coach.

Carpet was absolutely brutal. The sweat box was a miserable gym, but I loved it. Made it to the big boy gym my last 2 years. 3 on 3 teammates with Peyton and 5on 5 with Cooper. Played against Randy Livingston 1 year. Dude was legit.

Got the Bear when we got the Pike High cheerleaders to come over and perform. I think half the campers went back to their rooms and rubbed one out after seeing those girls dance. Fun times.

Yep was on the same 3 on 3 team with Hodson we won the daily tournament like 3 of 5 days mostly Tommy playing String Music. He was planning on playing bball at LSU his freshman year till he hurt his ulna nerve in football practice and had to rehab it.

Was on same NBA 5on 5 team with Gordon McKernan dude did not know the definition of passing the ball!
