Forrest Gump:

Fictional Character in a movie played out mostly in Alabama. However, only two characters in the whole movie were morons.

*Played on NC teams of Bear Bryant
*All-American Football Player
*Shook hands with Lennon, JFK, LBJ, and Nixon.
*American Soldier
*Medal of Honor recipient
*Millionaire businessman
*Traveler
*World Champ of Ping Pong
*Married the love of his life.


Or:

Swamp People/Corndogs


Not sure what the craze is about.

I always find it funny/insulting because I've heard people say "see, forest gump proves that any ole retard can play at bama".

I don't actually take offense to it though. Don't think anyone should, unless they are... retarded.

so you admit Bear Bryant would even finagle a mentally retarded person into the Univ. of Alabama for the sole purpose of playing intercollegiate football?

Gump was the man.

Swamp people know how to party.

Corndogs are delicious.

I thought these were all positive terms.

Gumps=Hillbillies/Rednecks.

I'd MUCH rather spend time with "Swamp People" than retarded in-bred Gumps.

He passed high school and graduated with a degree.

How many student athletes can't even do that by today's standards?

Even at LSU.

Gump was a mentally slow simpleton that backed into any accomplishment he had.

I'd say 80% can. Athletes in the lesser sports tend to have good GPAs I thought FWIW, I like Forrest Gump and Swamp People (on occasion)

Attending college at UAT was easy, even for ole' Forrest Gump. Even "we're gooder" Richardson is on the dean's list over there
