Casino Steve is a man of simple pleasures. He enjoys a bottle of scotch each night as he watches the Team of the South excel in America's greatest past time. Then, during the inevitable fold of the South's Team, Steve drowns his September sorrows in a bottle of Jack Daniel's delicious whiskey while watching the Tide rise for a 16th time. Outside of his leisure time, Casino Steve finds time to write creatively in between looking busy at his Public Relations job in the Heart of Dixie and investing his money at the race track.
Calling it now, Daniel is this season’s Lace. Should’ve gone home immediately, but will stick around only because ABC needs to fill some ad-space. Should be fun to watch.
You must be listening to a lot of Country Pop. Unfortunately, those 6 questions can apply to almost every country song these days. They are pretty catchy and babes love to play it while on the lake or at a bonfire (or any occasion, really), so itâs okay by me for that reason. Either way, as a Southerner, Iâll do my best to answer your questions to the best of my knowledge. I may have had a different experience than others, so feel free to correct me if Iâm out in left field.
1. Muscadine wine is a sweeter tasting wine, like a dessert wine. However, donât tell the vintner you think itâs âdessert wine.â Apparently thatâs offense for some reason, or it was when I said it. Who knew? Anyway, many ladies like the sweeter taste, but Iâm not thrilled, overall. Itâs definitely worth a try, if you ever get the chance, but Iâll stick with my Cabernet Sauvignon.
2. There could be a few reasons for the whole âcounty linesâ thing. I assume it stems from the old days where the police couldnât chase a criminal past county lines (not sure the accuracy of that myth, though). However, at least in Central Alabama (and I assume itâs the same way across the South), we divide a lot of things by counties instead of towns. Each county can consist of a ton of towns, and in the âburbs, towns can change seamlessly. We use counties for weather reports, school systems, and pretty much any type of news âA man in Tuscaloosa County was caught lootingâŚâ Thatâs the only thing I can think of outside of artists needing something to write about.
3. Yeah, this gets pretty played-up in country songs. In my experience, we had bonfires where we enjoyed our whisky and beer, and every now and then, some randos would show up. Basically, people find out where the cool places are to have a bon fire (and where the cops donât know about yet), and youâll get 2 to 3 groups of friends all trying to claim that spot at once. So it turns into groups of friends enjoying the same fire. After a few drinks are had, people start to mix and mingle.
4. Ah, Dixie Cups. I remember seeing them everywhere as a kid. When I came of age, I switched to Red Solo cups like everyone else in this world. However, Dixie Cups are an old Southern staple. Not sure where it came from, but you can find them at your local Piggly Wiggly. I feel like âDixieâ sounds more southern than âRed Soloâ (except Toby Keith debunked that claim). Wow, I forgot they existed until now. Thanks for the reminder; Iâll probably pick some up tonight.
5. The whole âwater towerâ thing perplexes me too, but people in small towns use it as a landmark. I always hear about people painting stuff up on the water tower for all to see. I guess since it stands tall among the small buildings in the town.
6. Unfortunately, drunk driving is a very popular thing. Itâs quite common to have your driver mix a toddy for the ride home or out to wherever he/sheâs going. However, I applaud the country music industry doing their part to try to keep everyone safe. Drunk driving can ruin lives, so I respect their efforts. Pledges do make life easier, but as a post-grad, it can get a little tricky.
Anyway, I hope this shed some light on your questions. For anyone reading this, feel free to correct me, because I may be way off. Glad you enjoy country music, welcome!

Do these type of posts really work?
Damn, that gif didn’t work. Went ahead and “Meh” myself.

That hashtag though. #Fire #JoJordanForever
I hate that the Braves are leaving the Ted on such a sour note đ
Oh, nice!! I thought that c2851310 was full of it! But your hourly rate is much better! I’m in, dammit!

I mean…. that’s why you don’t get divorced. Don’t stay together for the kids, the pets, etc. Stay together simply for the Facebook profile.
For real. Dayum.
If I don’t see this article by 9:00 am CT, Tuesday is gonna suck. Just saying. But good luck!
Not sure if you understand the satire of these articles…. or the basic model of this site. Don’t take yourself too seriously, kid.
Fair warning, thank you. Enjoy your night (or if things don’t go well, enjoy the bitter champagne mixed with tears). All the best, Doc.
Bruh
I did forget about the dry county thing. It can be a bitch.
Damn them Yanks.

And multiple posts that could have been condensed into one post.
why were you not in that video? Sounds like you’d fit in with random ramblings
