"Survivor: Southern Style."

Due to the popularity of the 'Survivor' shows, several southern TV
stations are joining together and are planning to do their own, entitled
"Survivor: Southern Style."

The contestants will start in Alabama, travel over to Georgia and on
to South Carolina. From there they will head up to North Carolina and over
to Tennessee. They will then proceed down to Mississippi and Louisiana.
Finally ending up back over in Alabama.

Each will be driving a pink Volvo with New Jersey license plates and
large bumper stickers that read:
I'm Gay, I'm a Vegetarian, NASCAR Sucks, Go Yankees!
Smoking is for Idiots, Hillary in 2004, Deer Hunting is Murder, and I'm Here
to Confiscate Your Guns!

The first one that makes it back to Montgomery alive, wins.

Shouldn't they have to collect a matchbook from at least one place with "roadhouse" in the title in each state? It might cut down on survivors, but you'd get to keep the prize.

Cool concept, but:

Those kind of oddball characters have existed in the South since long before Faulkner and O'Conner wrote about them.

And contrary to popular belief, they were largely ignored rather than bothered.
Unless they were related, in which case "Bless your heart" was the common sentiment.
