Is amazing that I watched this, my dad was actually the club manager/hotel detective where and when this happened and used to tell us this story when we were growing up and we never knew it was Buford Pusser.
Oh yeah! Me too! The Corvette was a gift to Buford from Gene Crump at Grene Crump Chevrolet in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Gene was a pallbearer at Buford's funeral. He is the man on the left of the casket in the photos. Joe Don Baker can be seen in some of the pictures with tears streaming down his face.
Burt Reynolds was jealous of Buford. They were both appearing at the Chevy Show in TN, some ladies walked up to Burts table, he asked them did they want him to sign something, they said no, we're looking for that big Sheriff!!! That pissed evidently pissed Burt off. Dwana says she sure that's why Hal Needham and Burt came up with the Buford T. Justice name....from Buford H. Pusser.

P.O.S.'s like Sheriff Pusser went after only speak and understand one language and he spoke it back to them! Fight fire with fire and an "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth." To enforce the law, you have to step outside of it. Lots of difference between legal and justice. I'll take justice all day long over "legal." But you are right, let a cop do that stuff nowadays and after the firing and spending a few years in federal prison, you'd be lucky if McDonald's would hire you to be their janitor. Very sad, liberalism is a fatal disease.@@janetphillips2875
Hi almost didn't live long then. Several assassination attempts, including one that killed his wife. He died the next year in a motor accident - that some say was a result of tampering.

No life insurance policy on his wife and his jaw bone was blown off. Please give me a motive that's enough to make a man shoot and cripple his own face go through multiple surgeries and risk dying?
Jimmy definitely lived a full and exciting life.

Buford was a friend of ours and that will teach you to stand on someones hood with golf shoes half cocked.

Buffet should have wrote a song about this
As a kid in the early 1970s, Buford Pusser was my hero. As a teenager in the late 2:39 1970s and into a
Where can we find this whole interview?
This is all I found
I love me some Jimmy Buffett and Buford Pusser.
1974 was ignition interlock.pusser wasn't sheriff in 1973/74
You weren't going to be harmed because of the car, it was because you decided it was OK to walk on someone's car.
Buffets hair never grew back from that day on i guess

He was driving intoxicsted, no one kill him but himself.

Pusser was a bully. He murdered his own wife
