Never been to Missouri....

[Ubeja Vontell]

....but my mom was born in Ava Missouri, my dad McCalister (McAlister?) Oklahoma, they met at the Missouri State Fair. Dad was thrown out of the ring by the carnival rassler, yep, dad trying to win the $$$$$ for lasting a round, he didn't. But he did land at my moms feet, I guess it was...hi

When I think of Missouri it is the Chiefs and then them St.Louis blues, some historically great stuff there, talking Lonnie Johnson, Henry Townsend, Peetie Wheatstraw, Rossevelt Sykes, Walter Davis, Charley Jordan etc etc.

Kansas City having Big Joe Turner, Wynonnie Harris, Jay McShann, Lottie Beamon, etc.

Way back in the day the great sprinter Jackson Sholz was out of U of Missouri, as was the fastest St. Louis Cardinal Mel Gray, a 9.2 guy. Anyone here remember the St.Louis Cardinals?

The first Missouri NFL franchise, the St. Louis Gunners in 1934, they went 1-2 and....poof! No more pro football in Missouri until 1960 and the St. Louis Cardinals.

I grew up out here in Calii, my parents moved out here before I was born, we have talked about visiting Ava and McCalister just for the hell of it.

I have a lot of family from around there, and Thornfield, Bradleyville, etc...from what they've said about life in the 40's and 50's there, you're not wrong.

I was born on a freeway. Growed and raised on a mayonaise farm. When I was eight years old, my daddy runned over me with a backhoe. Sparks commenced and my face caught fire. My brother seen everything from the porch, jumped down and put it out with a rake.

I don't mind this Ubeja guy. Yeah he's a bit eccentric but that's not necessarily a bad thing. He's not hurting anyone, if you guys can't stand his posting don't click on his threads.
