I have not. Where do I go to make a friend who speaks in this manner?

I had a buddy from Gonzales who said it. This was like 4 years ago and it wasn't his natural accent though. I did hear a song the other day named "Bayou Boys" and the singer pronounces it baws a few times.

Sure...you hear it a pretty good bit in most of the more rural areas of the south.

Its common south of Lafayette. Go to New Iberia, Abbeville, St Martinville, or Maurice and you'll hear it plenty.

My people from gramercy say it. And Covington. I say it all the time. Baw up or shut up.

I have been to most of these places and other rural areas in the south, but I have never heard a single person say it.

I say it frequently in a joking manner. Does that count?

I have an uncle that does.
