I’ve never forgotten being shocked and horrified by this scene as a kid… I saw it on TV, prob’ly in the late 60’s, but possibly in the early 70’s… I remember it as a scene from a movie, but it’s not impossible that it’s from a TV show… As I recall it, a bunch of good-ol’-boy types were whoopin’ it up in the bed of the pickup truck as they pulled their buddy on a small, low cart (not unlike an automobile-mechanic’s creeper) behind them… It’s all fun an’ games — ’til the guy ends up in the fence!… I also have a vague recollection — which might be entirely inaccurate — that the event was witnessed by a fashionable couple in an open/convertible sports car who happened upon it… I’ve wondered about this scene for decades… Ring any bells?…
Kinda sounds like falling from grace with john mellencamp not sure tho
Thanks for takin’ a stab at it, Pj, but that film, from the early 90’s, came along at least twunny years too late…
No problem
Memories from decades ago — ‘specially those that’ve been accessed, mulled over, an’ refiled myriad times — are *definit’ly* not the most reliable things… Havin’ said that, I have no clear recollection of whether the scene in question was in color or b&w… An’ I’ve used the google-muchine to try to find it numerous times in recent year — but no luck… Really hope that my description — even if it’s sumwhut flawed — rings a bell wit’ one of you guyz or galz…
