There was an attempted robbery of a credit union, and the local news found a local bystander who witnessed the unsuccessful getaway. The eyewitness is wearing a coonskin cap and references both “Dukes of Hazzard” and a NASCAR driver. So which is it: FLORIDA OR OHIO?
The answer: Panama City, Florida. I think that’s fitting for this edition, because the Florida panhandle is totally the Ohio of Florida.
It's perfectly cromulent headwear.

That clip really embiggened my LOLs for the day.

I’m still longing for the day when the answer is Florida, Ohio.

Having lived in Florida I can tell you this with 100% accuracy: The Florida Panhandle is just southern Alabama.
That guy reminded me of Dickie from “Justified”.
Coon skin cap screams south of the Mason-Dixon line.
Some folks’ll never lose a toe, and then again, some folks’ll.
+1 Otto.
There’s a gent who enjoys his rootmarm.
Rootmarm? That flavorless mush? Ugh. I’ll take turnip juice any day of the week, thank you very much.
One coon skin cap per group.
In Florida, we actually expect people to wear coonskin hats when they’re on the news. It lets us know that they’re intelligent.
@The Hammer: That’s an insult to Southern Alabama. Don’t drag them down with you.
Florida, outside of the mega cities, is the deep south. As in coonskin cap wearing, squirrel eating, moonshine running, deep south.
do you think he wore that hat all day or he wore it strictly because he knew he was going to be on the news?
/drank moonshine this weekend
Ah the Panhandle, or as I like to call it, the Redneck Riviera.
Florida or Ohio is easily my favorite segment on WG.

I thought a coonskin cap was when a black guy has his head shaved?
