    Popcorn was his own man, the definition of independence and doing things his way.

      He was NOT an honorable man. My father walked away from every baby he ever made. There are at least six of us kids.

    That video was amazing! I was in Maggie Valley in 1970 and considered it the prettiest place on the face of the earth. Very few buildings, just mountains and trees and creeks! I understand it has really grown and changed. So sad. It used to look a lot like Idaho does now.

    I lived in Sylva,NC most of my life. I had to cross Balsam Mountain to get to Maggie Valley. Popcorn’s “Shine” the best, & whatever you were looking for,he had it. RIP Popcorn Sutton❤️🙏🏻❤️

    I have a half a jar of his liquor from one of his last runs.
    Its a shame he took his own life in 2009 because he refused to serve a 18 month federal sentence.

    How ironic this video is. I was cleaning up my shop yesterday and took down a wanted poster of popcorn and was going to sneak hang it up at our local restaurant! And, I always wanted to know why he had the nickname "popcorn". Then you posted this today. ❤

    • @IdahoHillbilly
      @IdahoHillbilly  9 місяців тому +2

    Thanks for sharing that video, I've only seen the other videos they did of him before when he was making moonshine and telling stories about the mountains and the people who lived there. I always enjoyed those videos so much.
    My ex's family is from Murphy N.C., a place called Hanging Dog community. He wasn't much into junk shops but we camped all over those mountains when our boys were little. I bet his brother Buck met Popcorn at some time or other though. He was a veteran and after he retired from the Coast Guard he loved to go camping for a week or two at a time up there. He would always stop in to places like that and talk to people, listen to their stories. I loved to hear him tell us jokes and stories he heard from people he met on his camping trips.
    We camped a few times around Maggie Valley and Cherokee but most of the time we liked being farther out from town in places like Black Mountain and Hanging Dog camp grounds. They were more like the places you have driven us through with your truck looking for your firewood. I guess that's why I like those videos so much because it reminds me of places we use to camp.
    Thanks for the reminder of so many good memories though.
