Mostly True Memoirs
Seriously? Is This True?
Seriously?
We used a lot of rideshares in Nashville.
Most of the drivers were musicians.
All of them were very friendly and were happy to talk about their city.
My favorite driver was David.
He may or may not have been a musician, but he was certainly a comedian.
He grew up in Nashville.
David told us that way back in the day, Tootsie’s would hire kids to shoot pigeons away from the building.
The kids got paid in beer.
Seriously?
They hired kids to shoot birds at a crowded honky-tonk?
They paid kids in beer?
I want to know if this is true.
Who grew up in Nashville?
Who can confirm this story?
If it’s the truth, then we heard an outrageous but hilarious story about growing up in Music City.
If it’s a tall tale, then we spent an engaging moment in the company of a brilliant BSer.
Either way, I want to know.
