Met her multiple times, she was very pleasant to be around.

Odd but real story...

Was at an LSU women's basketball game back in the glory years of Seimone and Sylvia--like 2006-07ish--and we got there pretty early. My mom said "I think that is Elly May Clampett sitting on the Mississippi State bench"

A few other people around us thought the same thing, and come to find out later, Elly May and the Mississippi State coach (a lady named Sharon Fanning) were very good friends and the coach invited Elly May to come to the game and sit on the bench with the team (Elly May had retired back to Zachary by that time)

Yeah, CSB. And LSU waxed that Bulldog arse that day
