A ghastly headline for a ghastly tale.  Unbelievable but true, the man in the video you are about to watch was indeed forced to eat his own beard.  In an apparent riding lawnmower deal gone wrong, a couple of drunk country fellers cut off this guy’s beard and made him eat it at knife and/or gun point.

Friends, this gut-wrenching story of heartache comes from none other than my home state that I love so much, Kentucky.  We may not all be beard-eatin’, lawnmower-sellin’ giants, but this story is a good example to others just how crazy my home state is and why you just have to love its crazy characters.

(If you can’t understand this guy, let me know and I’ll translate a transcription.  I still speak the language pretty well.)
