Clay
And nothing in between. Fuel your day@chalk.com Bold, reverent and occasionally random. The Sunday Hang with Clay and Buck podcast starts now. We're moving. So the Laura Travis Halloween party that has been in existence for the last decade or so is not happening in normal fashion. But I suspect that my wife will have something that she has planned for us to be wearing. As you know, she gives out. I think I've talked about this before on the air every Halloween in my neighborhood. All this, I mean, I don't know, there's probably a thousand kids that are circuitrying in my neighborhood. It's super packed. Parents also walk around and some houses give out parent treats. And a parent treat might be alcoholic in nature. We have for the last decade or so Buck given out fireball shots on the Travis front porch for 21 parents. Parents. Parents. Yeah. We are not getting, we're not getting 8 year olds wasted. No, this is parents only. And occasionally my wife will, will request an ID because there are sometimes teenagers that will, that will decide to be taking around their, their nieces, nephews or maybe little brothers or sisters and try to try to take advantage largesse here. But I believe that will be going on and usually my wife is dressed up when she's passing that out. So yes, look, I think Halloween is one of the most fun times a year. Fall October. If you made me power rank my months, I think October is the best month of the year. That would be my power ranking. I don't know what month you would go to overall. I just think I'm a sports guy. October's the best sports month. Weather treat, leaves changing. Halloween, it's my favorite month of the year. May is second by the way on my power rankings. So. But, but, but my favorite month of the year. And yes, there's a lot of reason for optimism across the nation right now.
- [02:38]
Buck
As a New Yorker, I would back your October, but just because I Love fall and the temperature and the leaves. I can't say that it's because I watch much of the football.
- [02:49]
Clay
But as not just the football buck, you got the World Series and the Major League Baseball playoffs going on, and so it's kind of like everything coming together.
- [02:59]
Buck
I'm glad to learn of those things, but also because I had forgotten that the World Series was going on. But then there's. As a Floridian, you gotta love January the most.
- [03:10]
Clay
You gotta love cocky Floridian because you just want to. How much time do you spend now that you live in Miami on your iPhone, just occasionally flicking over to check and see what the weather is in New York when it is January. This is what Floridians love to brag about. Like, oh, what's the temperature where you live right now?
- [03:28]
Buck
Not just weather, Clay. I go through Instagram and I check out all these schmoes all over the country who don't live in South Florida in mid January with a big itchy wool sweater and a ski parka and a hat with maybe another hat trudging through snow. That's when Florida feels like a magical place. That's when all of a sudden. So January is the best month in Florida, I would say. I can't say December because I don't like our Christmas celebrations down here as much as I.
- [03:58]
Clay
Because it's snow. And every year to be, like, super warm and have, like, snow globes out and stuff.
- [04:03]
Buck
Yeah, you get. You get the. The lights around the palm trees is not as exciting to me as the stuff you'll see in the colder parts of the country. So I have to give the month of December to the more temp, the, you know, the seasonal places across the country. But once January hits and you're done with your New Year celebration and the Christmas and the Hanukkah holidays and everything else, are you walking around in sandals? Because us Floridians are.
- [04:34]
Clay
How about August?
- [04:36]
Buck
I mean, you know, not as good. If you like melting all the time, it's fantastic. If you like the constant feel of your clothing being wet, then South Florida in August is great.
- [04:47]
Clay
So I will say there are very few feelings. Better. I don't like cold weather, and I understand a lot of you live in cold weather. My wife likes. My wife grew up in Detroit, so there are very few. I always say it's not a vacation unless you put on fewer clothes when you get off the plane than you had on when you got on the plane. Right. I always want to go skiing.
- [05:07]
Buck
Right.
- [05:07]
Clay
Well, but I don't. I'm not even a ski guy. Right. Yes, I understand people like that and ski villages can be fine, but if you told me, hey, you can go to a warm beach or a ski village. I'm picking warm beach every time. Now my family doesn't always agree, so sometimes we end up out there. I'm look, I'm a Goodletsville, Tennessee kid. Nobody around me knew how to ski like so you know, I'm not. Oh no. I'm just scrolling through and catching up on Twitter and I see that they shared my I was all in an optimistic mood and then I find out that my senior class photos have just been shared by the Clay and Buck Twitter feed here. And you seen this yet? I'm 30 minutes behind on social media and this thing is going to go everywhere.
- [05:50]
Buck
Oh oh, Clay's hair. If you haven't seen it, Clay's hair was very much what I was describing as the worst 90s haircut for men, which was very common. I cannot lie. I think my older brother had it for a while. There was a period of time so it's fun to take a little throwback.

Clay
Sunday, hang with Clay and Buck.
- [08:13]
Buck
Been a long time since I've seen the Pink Panther or say, Ocean's Eleven, a much more recent movie. But if you were paying attention to the news over the weekend, you might have seen that there was a stunning heist at the Louvre in Paris. Paris on Sunday. It was open for business. Tourists flocking in, probably getting close to the Mona Lisa, where they realized they're in a very packed room. And it's a small painting and it's behind like 10 inches of bulletproof, bomb proof, nuclear bomb proof glass. And it's not as exciting as you're hoping it's going to be. Sorry, I'm just telling you the facts. But there are all these tourists jamming in there and some guys dressed in construction worker garb managed to steal over the course of about. This is 9:30am Sunday, France time. They got on an electric ladder mounted on a truck. They got to the second floor. The Apollo Gallery. This houses Clay Francis. Crown jewels. Yes, the actual crown jewels. And these guys use power tools, broke in and a couple of burglars broke into the most famous museum in the world and stole the most priceless jewels that France has. Eight pieces of jewelry, a sapphire. Sapphire tiara necklace, earrings, royal emerald necklace, belong to Empress Eugenie, the wife of Napoleon iii. Clay, what the heck is going on here?
- [10:05]
Clay
I thought this was a made up story. I, because I thought to myself, surely, surely France could stop people from stealing things from the Louvre in 2025.
- [10:18]
Buck
France could stop people from stealing the crown jewels. The crown jewels.
- [10:22]
Clay
If this movie came out. I was talking about this with my wife. If this movie came out, it sounds crazier than An Ocean's Eleven. Like I would, I would not believe that they could steal the French crown jewels in a movie. I would say this is too unbelievable. How does this happen? They took them 10 minutes. How can you be in the crown jewel room for 10 minutes and they can't catch you? Like, I went and I read all about this because I was traveling up here late last night and I just, I was reading every article on my airplane flight because I watched all the videos they just pulled. First of all, how can you. I got so many thoughts on this. Everybody, by the way, is reacting. Everybody thinks it's as crazy as you and I do, Buck. It's an embarrassment to France that they could steal the crown jewels. If somebody could go in and steal. This sounds like a Nicholas Cage movie because it is the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. I would say, yeah, we really blew it here. I would guess that's probably the top thing that could be stolen in America. The French crown jewels just being stolen is embarrassing. As part of all my reading about the French crown jewels being stolen, I forgot, you know, they stole the Mona Lisa in the early 1900s. So if you, if you were France and you had had previously the Mona Lisa stolen out of the same museum a hundred years ago, don't you think you would have said, hey, let's make sure that none of our priceless artifacts ever get stolen again. And yet France somehow allowed this to occur. And, and to your point, Buck, it was the middle of the day, they just pulled in a lift, they went in through the second floor window. They were there for, I've seen different reports, seven to 10 minutes, which is a really long time to be in the most secure museum in your country. It should be. And then they left on motorcycles and now they have no idea where they are. And you mentioned, you know, it's hard to sell these, and I think that's probably true. But my expert knowledge from the very high end television show Outer Banks, one possibility would be that they just melt this down for the jewels. But that doesn't seem like such a good move because the problem plays historical value.
- [13:08]
Buck
You can't, you can't, you can't melt the jewel. These are diamonds and emeralds. So you're not going to melt those down, right? You got to keep them whole. Can you, do you melt diamonds? I don't think you can melt.
- [13:19]
Clay
Well, I think you melt the gold and then you isolate all of the diamonds for the value.
- [13:24]
Buck
But outside diamonds in these emeralds are going to be so big that like you're not, you're not going to be able to go on the, on the open market. You're like, hey, I just happen to have this 20 carat emerald that I found. You know, I just feel like I.
- [13:40]
Clay
Am simultaneously impressed by the chutzpah of the robbers because, I mean, they decided we're going to steal the French crown jewels and they managed to do it. I would imagine that they have been preparing for this for Some time. Although the report is they dropped one of the most valuable assets like the. One of the crowns, I think, or something. And so it was left behind and damaged. But I wonder, do you think this is some insanely wealthy person who funds this? Because what is the motivation here other than embarrassing the French government? Because I can't imagine that it pays actually that well. Unless there's some super rich billionaire who just decided he had to have the Empress's. The Empress's necklace.
- [14:31]
Buck
Right. It's like you're going all Thomas Crown affair. Like maybe there's somebody out there who's.
- [14:35]
Clay
Just so bored with his life, he's.
- [14:36]
Buck
Like, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to steal the French crown jewels out of the Louvre. So I don't know. I wonder if some Middle Eastern sheikh.
- [14:47]
Clay
That'S kind of my thought wonder wants.
- [14:49]
Buck
So badly to have the French crown jewels in his. In his safe that he would. But that's I got running. You're running high risks here.
- [14:57]
Clay
If that's true, it's not the, you know, Middle Eastern ruler. Yeah.
- [15:04]
Buck
Also just there's more fun, like go buy yourself a European soccer team or something. You know what I mean? Do what all the other super rich foreign guys do. I mean, the crown jewels, I don't know what you do with these.
- [15:16]
Clay
My thought is if it's true that it was some Middle Eastern sheikh or something that says, hey, go get the, the Empress Josephine's, you know, necklace. This is kind of the Middle Eastern sheikh equivalent of when Kobe bought his wife the $12 million ring after he got caught cheating on her. Like one of those Middle Eastern sheiks did something really bad. And he's like, she's like, the only way I'll stay with you is if you get me the Empress Josephine's necklace. And he's like, all right, I guess we got to get the Empress Josephine's necklace. Right. Like, do you remember Kobe when he got caught? Yeah. Actually wasn't that was after the woman.
- [15:51]
Buck
The woman accused him of raping her.
- [15:53]
Clay
Yes, Right. A forcible rape. And his wife stayed with him after the rape accusation. But they had a press conference and she showed up with a diamond that was like a 20 carat. It was like 20. Somebody look up how big the diamond was.
- [16:08]
Buck
I think it was like four carats. Clay. I don't think it was.
- [16:11]
Clay
I think it was like 20 carats.
- [16:12]
Buck
Is like a. It's like a football.
- [16:15]
Clay
I think she basically showed up with a, with a flashlight sized diamond. I mean, like, it blinded everyone. At the press conference. They were like, why did you decide to stay with Kobe? And she like, raised her hand and four people lost their eyesight when they caught the reflection from the diamond. Eight.
- [16:30]
Buck
It was eight. So we kind of split the difference between us.
- [16:33]
Clay
I said four.
- [16:33]
Buck
You said 20 is eight, Clay. A 20. A 20 carat ring would be like a baseball.
- [16:38]
Clay
That's too big. An 8 carat ring is a ridiculous ring. And this was pre. All the fake diamonds. Right? Like the diamond industry has to.
- [16:47]
Buck
Hold on a second, hold on a second. They're not fake diamonds you're talking about necessarily. There are such things as fake diamonds. You're talking about lab diamonds.
- [16:53]
Clay
Correct.
- [16:54]
Buck
And I know some people in the jewel business. And they're real diamonds. They're just made under laboratory conditions.
- [17:03]
Clay
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
- [17:03]
Buck
Much less expensive than natural diamonds. And no one's hands get chopped off in Africa by the warlords who are trying to mine them. You know the blood diamond stuff.
- [17:14]
Clay
Yeah. No, it's basically destroyed the diamond industry because they're able to produce these synthetic diamonds, I think is the technical term that instead of fake, that people to a large extent can't tell the difference. Lab. I believe lab diamonds is synthetic. Is that a right word too? I don't know. By the way, that's probably accurate.
- [17:33]
Buck
But I'm just saying that they're usually.
- [17:35]
Clay
Lab diamonds is how they're lab grown diamonds.
- [17:37]
Buck
I think I remember this from when I was buying Carrie her engagement ring and people were. I did not go lab. I probably should have gone lab because that was. I told her this. The most expensive thing I ever bought in my life ever, because I didn't own a home. Was. Was my wife's engagement room.
- [17:51]
Clay
Well, this is also where you didn't get married till after you already made money. See, I didn't have any money, I don't think. By the way, Kobe's ring was valued at $4 million 20 years ago. So this is probably close to a $10 million ring in Modern. You know, the way that Biden inflation has gone. I didn't have much money when I got engaged. In fact, I think I certainly had a negative next. A negative net worth when I got engaged. So it was a lot of money to me, but it wasn't a lot of money in the larger context. You, on the other hand, you get married, you're already. You had to produce a good ring because you got real money now.
- [18:33]
Buck
So. Well, they do this thing of three months of salary.
- [18:35]
Clay
That's crazy.
- [18:36]
Buck
Which is insane. But, guys. All right, I'm gonna tell you something, right?
- [18:39]
Clay
For all the gu.
- [18:39]
Buck
We don't have a lot of unmarried guys listening who are. Still want to get married. We have some, but, you know, I think a lot. We. We specialize. Our audience is overwhelmingly going to be people who are married or have been married.
- [18:51]
Clay
Right. I think that's true.
- [18:53]
Buck
We don't have a lot of guys in their 20s and 30s in particular who are, like, looking to get married. But for any of you out there, I'm going to tell you a few things. Do not go into debt for diamonds, for vacations, for or for anything that. That. That, you know.
- [19:09]
Clay
How about weddings? Do not go in debt for weddings or rings.
- [19:14]
Buck
This is the next thing I was going to say, because you. You brought up like, yeah, I'd already had. I'd achieved, you know, a little bit of professional success when Carrie and I got married.
- [19:21]
Clay
And.
- [19:22]
Buck
And we. I mean, I'll tell you, like, our. Our wedding cost less than. It basically costs like the national average, but we're doing it in New York City and Miami beach cost less than a third of what the average wedding would cost. Because I don't understand in those places because, you know, why are people spending all this money on this stuff? I think this is crazy, the pressure you get. You know, you shouldn't have to get Napoleon's Empress Josephine crown jewels for a lady to love you. You know what I mean?
- [19:51]
Clay
This is.
- [19:52]
Buck
Come on now.
- [19:53]
Clay
No, it's totally true. Look, I would tell everybody out there, and I know there's a lot of dads and moms nodding along right now. I would. I would encourage you have way less of a wedding, way less of a ring, and use money to try and buy a place, like somewhere to live for you. Put that into the house fund instead. I'm going to tell my kids this. I don't even know what the rules are now. I've got three boys. It used to be that you're not paying.
- [20:21]
Buck
You're not paying for any wedding.
- [20:22]
Clay
By the way, technically, I'm paying for all the weddings. I bet that's probably. That's pro. That's probably. I'm going to end up paying for a lot of the weddings, but I'm telling my boys, hey, you should.
- [20:33]
Buck
They're going to go to your new house and 30A and be like, you know what, Clay? I'm going to let you. I'm the father of the bride here, but I'm going to let you pay for the wedding, buddy. I Think I can see Mexico from here.
- [20:43]
Clay
Yeah, I think. Yeah, you can almost see Mexico. You get up there pretty high. You know what I've learned, Buck? Rooftop pool there. The bugs don't get that high. It's a problem. I didn't know. Like, the. The bugs get in the pool when you're down low. The higher up in the sky you go. The bugs. Bugs don't fly that high. But it's something that I've learned. There's no bugs in the pool. The high. Like, if you got a high level pool, there's no bugs. It's like everything gets better, but I'm going to end up paying. But I'm going to tell my kids now. I've already talked to them. Hey, weddings are great. It's fun to celebrate them. But I will. I would rather help give you the money that I would spend on the wedding to be in part of your house fund, which actually benefits you and as a good investment. Then just throw a crazy extravagant wedding, which, by the way, just to be fair, a lot of weddings don't last. A lot of marriages don't last that long.
- [21:38]
Buck
All right, well, let's just. Let's not get too.
- [21:40]
Clay
Imagine if you were a dad and a mom and you spent 100k on a wedding, and 2 years later your kids are getting divorced. I would want a refund on my 100k.
- [21:51]
Buck
I was a. I was a plus one to a. I was a plus one to a very extravagant wedding in Long island that lasted they. They were married six months. So I've. I've.
- [21:59]
Clay
What do you think the wedding cost?
- [22:02]
Buck
300 grand? Probably.
- [22:03]
Clay
So imagine. I mean, this is insane. Imagine that you. And. And not even for the people who throw it on. I think you should have to return the gifts and get your money back. You only last six months. I mean, whatever wedding register you got, like, why. Why should you not get your money back on the gift, too?
- [22:18]
Buck
But I'll just tell you, for all the. For the guys out there, if you. If you give the ring and you get any sense or, you know, you say, will you marry me? You get any sense that the ring itself is some kind of issue and.
- [22:30]
Clay
Or, yeah, you need to hear via.
- [22:32]
Buck
The grapevine that, like the. Like, the answer is a yes, but the ring is disappointing. Don't do it, boys.
- [22:39]
Clay
You need to do it.
- [22:41]
Buck
Run. It's not good.
- [22:43]
Clay
Really?
- [22:44]
Buck
Yep. You need to know. You need to know. And I wonder if some of the ladies are going to weigh in on this one. They know.
- [22:49]
Clay
They know.
- [22:50]
Buck
We've we've got, we got a lot of wise ladies who listen in here and they know I feel the same.
- [22:55]
Clay
Way on the ring. Would you rather have an expensive ring or a husband who is going to be thinking about the long range future here and he's trying to think of a place to buy. He wants to start a house fund. I've said this before, I do think it's funny. I, I For girls out there, if you got daughters, if you got granddaughters, knowing a guy's credit rating I think is almost more valuable than anything else. I'm talking about if you're getting married to a guy who's 28 or 32 or 34, you know, in that range, does he have a decent credit rating? That's where I, that's what I would want to know. The job matters, but also is he capable of understanding basic finance such that his credit rating is going to be able to help get you a mortgage? That's what I'd want to know. If I was a chick, I'd be like, okay, it's great. You know, you're six foot, you may got a decent sal. What's your credit?
- [23:44]
Buck
Clay is what we would call a hopeless romantic. So there you go. He's like, hey baby, what's your credit rating?
- [23:50]
Clay
I want to know. Sundays with Clay and Buck.
- [23:56]
Buck
Ken in Michigan wants to talk about wedding stuff. Ken, by all means, sir. Hey, love listening to you guys. When my two daughters got married, when they were planning their wedding, my wife and I sat down with them and our potential son in law and negotiated a fair, a nice but fair wedding cost. And when we got done, I said, okay, you're going to get half the money up front. You get the other half on your wedding day and anything that's left over you can keep. And boy did they change their tune and start cutting back on costs. And they kept the balance for.
- [24:33]
Clay
I love this, I love this advice. I mean if you got rational kids that are getting married out there, if you're the kid that is listening to us right now, who is going to get married one day. Financial issues going to sound like an old man now. Often derail marriages more than almost anything, right? Couples fight over money. There's very strong chance that you and your spouse may have different standards of, of expenses or understanding of how money should be allocated. And so starting off with something that is a common goal, being able to build a home and not starting off in debt, my goodness, I just. The choices that people make. Can you imagine Buck getting married and owing 50k to help pay off your wedding.
- [25:20]
Buck
It's not worth it, guys. We're here to help you out with this. Not worth it. You'd have a. My. My actual wedding, we had 25 people. Yeah, my actual wedding, we had 25 people, basically. I think that was the number. Carrie might correct me, she would know better than me. It was something like that. And we loved it. It was perfect. And everyone had a great time. So, you know, it was in the church, it was our families, and that was it. And that was all we needed. Now we threw a big party. But when you're just throwing a party without all the wedding stuff, you know, Clay, you came to that. Yeah, that's. We had 180 people at a party, but the expense wasn't that much because it was a. It was a three hour party.
- [25:52]
Clay
That's right.
- [25:52]
Buck
It's not. The thing with weddings is you get into all this other stuff and it gets all.
- [25:56]
Clay
Well, they also play up on everybody's insecurity by saying, well, you could choose not to do this, but most people do, you know, and look, if you are fortunate enough to have the money as a dad or mom and you want to throw a big party, that's fine. You can spend money however you want it. Exactly.
- [26:13]
Buck
Anyone who has the money to burn, we're not telling you what to do with that. I'm just saying it's not worth it to go into debt, which people do, which is bonkers. It's like going into debt for a vacation. How do you enjoy your vacation when you're running up a $20,000 credit card debt on it? It's nuts.
- [26:26]
Clay
It's nuts. And again, I would echo what Buck said. If the girl is going to be upset about the size of the ring, you need to run. Run other direction.
- [26:38]
Buck
Not going to get. It's not going to get better, guys. It's not going to get better.
- [26:41]
Clay
And by the way, maybe you end up having success in life and you want to give your wife a bigger ring somewhere down as a testament to the success you've had together. I think that's a co.
- [26:52]

But I have a deal with Carrie because, you know, she. She quit her job to take care of Speed and to, you know, run the household. I can get her gifts and things for Christmas. Like, you know, things like we're the little jewelry and stuff like that. But she's like, well, if I get you a gift, isn't it just with your money? And I'm like, yes, that's. Why don't do it. Just keep being a great wife and I mean it. You know.

Don't get me a Rolex. I don't need a Rolex. I don't even want to wear a fancy watch. I'm fine.

I only shop at Costco, so I don't even know what I'd want.

The Sunday hang is brought to you by Chalk Natural supplements for guys, gals.

Clay
And nothing in between. Fuel your day@chalk.com Sunday drop with Clay and Buck Judy on the podcast Listening. Oh I got two funny comments Buck. 1. A friend sent this through my wife. I'm listening to yesterday's show. Please tell Clay he's right on weddings. Also you Buck, my two sisters and I all three got Married in less than two years. Uh, three huge weddings my dad paid for. He's still about how much they cost to this day. Listen to this, Buck. He actually made us sign a contract that if each of our marriages did not last at least five years, we had to pay him back for what the wedding cost. Completely true story. Valid how? I agree with this. Right?
- [30:21]
Buck
No problem. No problem with that at all. No problem with that at all. You're gonna. You want all the bells and whistles. If you're not gonna make this a real union that goes to test it, you know, last the distance, you got to pay that money back.
- [30:32]
Clay
I am. Team dad. I've never heard of any dad that did this before, but he had three daughters, and he had to pay for all of them within two years. And dad just said, hey, if they don't last five years, you're on the hook to pay back for this.
- [30:44]
Buck
I don't have a daughter. You don't have a daughter. But, you know, we're still trying, so maybe we'll get a daughter here over at. Over in Team Buckland. And I would just say this, Clay, if I was in that situation, you know, let's say 20 years down the line after having a. A baby girl, I would. I would take the. Let's sit down. I'll give you a budget.
- [31:04]
Clay
Yeah.
- [31:05]
Buck
And the budget is twofold. It's a wedding budget and a down payment on your house budget.
- [31:10]
Clay
Yep. Allocate the resources as you see fit. That's super smart.
- [31:15]
Buck
Exactly. You get to make the determination. But I think that that puts it very, you know, especially. You get a lot of people, a lot of millennials, priced out of expensive. Remember, they're priced out of expensive market kids. People can live in the Tulsa suburbs in a nice place, no problem. But everybody that's complaining about this, the millennials, they want to live, you know, at the. It's like, you know, the Navy Yard in D.C. or they want to live in Beacon Hill. In Boston, I don't know. Where do fancy people in Boston live? I just don't want to say the Upper east side in Beverly Hills, because those are the only fancy neighborhoods that come.
- [31:44]
Clay
Yeah, look, in Nashville, there are tons of places you can live very affordably. All the kids want to live in the Gulch. They want to live in Music Row. They want to live in 12 South. Right. Um, and you could live very cheaply in. In Gallatin. Right. By and large, you could live very cheaply in lots of suburban areas. But I love your idea. Hey, let's sit down. Here is your budget. If you're fortunate enough to have resources to be able to help with the down payment on a home, make a smart, rational decision. But, dad, there was like, hey, if this don't go five, if this doesn't go five years, you're gonna have to pay me back. Judy is is weighing in aa. Let's see what she had to say. So I've never actually called a talk show before, but I did just listen to Clay talk about the fact that he didn't get to watch any football and that his Tennessee Volunteers lost. So I'm really sorry to say this, but Roll Tide.
- [32:40]
Buck
Was she spiking the football right in your heart, Clay?
- [32:43]
Clay
Yeah.
- [32:43]
Buck
What happened?
- [32:43]
Clay
She was. Now, I got to watch some football, but I was saying that I spent six hours because my Alabama fan son of all dropped his phone in the toilet and we had to go get the. Evidently, eventually we found out we had to replace the battery that was wired out or buzzed out or whatever it did. And so I unfortunately did watch Alabama beat Tennessee.
- [33:05]
Buck
But, yes, we were in ancient Rome. They would say that this was an omen and that his dropping of the phone was like dropping the vol's hopes on that day.
- [33:14]
Clay
I thought that that would actually be the case, except he is an Alabama fan. And so he both tormented me by having me spe hours getting his phone fixed. And then as soon as the game was over, I picked him up where he had been hanging out with a bunch of his friends. And he said, roll Tide, Dad. Tennessee sucks. And I was like, dude, I spent six hours getting your phone repaired.
