I like that Wayne hunts, is a Republican, and drinks simple beer.

I wish he was my black friend.

A close buddy of mine I grew up with is all 3 of these things, coming from a small town in MS. With the exception of having a BS in computer science, he's more authentic southern than most of the people around here. Doesn't even care for any snooty beer, just sucks down them beasts(what I call Milwaukee's Best Light)

I always thought it was a nice touch from season 1 when Rust was hitting those Lonestars. First time I visited Texas was to visit an old roommmate who grew up in Austin and he introduced me to them.

Anyways, watched the first two episodes again and was able to really take in more the second time around, then it made me just go back and do a rewatch of season 1, which I can already tell both blend together nicely.

EDIT: Came across this gem earlier, didn't realize it was ever pretty popular back in the day
