In early March 1967, the War Eagle Theatre was doing what it did best: titillating the Auburn male, this time (as it had and would again many times) with cartoonish curves from the Russ Meyer ouevre—specifically Faster Pussycat and Motor Psycho.

Completely off topic but caught the tail end of some reality show called Gator Boys on Animal Planet with my kid. While watching I noticed that there was a young man completing his Doctorate from Auburn helping conduct research on the stress levels of crocodilians. Don’t know if the higher up at TWER would want to contact him. The episode was titled: Alligator Face-Off.
My best friend and I went to see Faster Pussycat. We were pretty naive. but it became a running joke with us. Faster , faster, Pussy cat, Kill, Kill. The beginning of my Women;s lib era.
Wow! That’s an amazing double feature. Cool that Freida saw it. Anyone else?

Did he interview Urban Meyer?
