Small town in Northeast TX.

I wasn’t anything special but played football and ran track. One of my football buddies started hanging out with one of my track buddies and eventually became co-workers and pretty good friends when I went off to college and the military.

They each got married, had some kids, and then literally got divorces and swapped wives when the kids were just old enough to figure out something was off. The kiddos go through the motions but really still don’t know whether they are cutting out or sewing up.

Anything from the old hometown that you never saw coming yet completely throw you for a loop?

It blew up and we all almost died, only 8 people were killed, in the chemical plant explosion but 100s injured in a town of about 900.

Look up the story of Janice Trahan and Dr. Richard Schmidt

He was married, but not to her. She wanted out. He infected her with HIV and hep C. First case in US history where a case was connected by the DNA with the virus.

There was the kid in my neighborhood growing up, he was maybe 5 or 6 years younger than I was.. His mom and dad were part of a non denom church.. The dad was this nerdy looking guy and his mom was taller than the dad and not fat.. just big boned lady.

This was probably when I was in my early 20s are so.. So the kid must have been 16-17 years old.. Evidently his parents were not home one day, went search around their room and found his dad's porn stash which included a video tape. He put it in, I guess expecting to watch some porn.. It was a video of his parents with another couple.

The kid flipped out and supposedly confronted them about it. They were swingers and had a couple they would swing with. When all said and done, they got divorced, the other couple got a divorce and the dad and the wife from the other couple ended up together.. Her then ex husband ended up with some woman they "played with".. And the mom.. I don't think she ended up with anyone.

My hometown was nearly wiped off the map by a tornado in 1952. It killed over a hundred people. There are pictures of a diner with no walls or roof, but a place setting, complete with napkin and silverware sitting on a table, like a waitress had just set the table.

I was born and raised in Slidell. Nuff said. It’s well documented, albeit sometimes unfairly and inaccurately, on the OT.

Years ago there was a guy about 4 years younger than me getting married. After the engagement parties and gifts he and his fiancee started seeing other people(probably started prior to the parties and gifts). They decided pre-wedding that they didn't want to be married to each other. But, they also didn't want to return all of the gifts. So they get married and both of them invited their boyfreind/girlfriend on the honeymoon.

Devil worship and the Klan

ETA: Sonic is about 300 yards from our Popeyes. You can order a chicken sandwich and head over to Sonic to check knuckles after you pull up to wait for your food.

Ben Roethlisberger may or may not have have sexually assaulted a girl in the bathroom of a local “club”. Kinda weird seeing ESPN vans lined up down the streets of the bars I frequented in my youth.

A guy I went to school with became a crackhead in his teen years. He broke into a house to rob it thinking no one was there. A woman and her two kids ended up being home. He stabbed the woman over 40 times in front of the kids. He's doing life at Angola. Last I heard, he was diagnosed with rectal cancer.
