Steve and DC

I MAY Never sleep again. You may not either if you hate spiders as I do. I’m not the only one. I have a witness. I’ve been back in Tuscaloosa for one week, and I have loved it. However, as I looked for a new home, I encountered a creature that honestly stopped another sweet Tuscaloosa resident and me in our tracks.

Who knew? Some of the most notorious and dangerous criminals in American history were first experienced right here in Alabama. This is fascinating, for those of us that have lived here for many years and had no idea some of these dangerous fools were from or have lived in Tuscaloosa, Jasper and Birmingham!

I love a good mystery. Unless I'm in it! It's so good to be back in Tuscaloosa and on The Steve & DC Show every morning on 95.3 The Bear. So, we are going through our old photos and we find a picture of me with my brothers and mother taken on Halloween night in Tuscaloosa.

IT'S ABOUT THAT TIME OF THE YEAR! Halloween. Some folks live for this time of year. I'm torn on that notion. I like it, but from a distance. The fact that a couple of the scariest houses in the southeast, are in my backyard of Tuscaloosa and Northport, is a little too close for comfort.

It’s not clickbait. Mark my words because one day, this is going to happen. Tuscaloosa, Alabama, is a city that I have lived in, off and on, since the 80s. Oh, how I love Alabama and, in particular, my Alabama Crimson Tide.

I bet you wonder which restaurant, huh? Before I reveal the offending, horrible place, I am very fair. The other issue, is that the place has two Tuscaloosa locations. One, I have never been inside. I gave the other location a few chances. I'm convinced after talking to several other Tuscaloosa natives, there is no hope.

OH YEAH, who doesn't love to dream? If you had a couple million bucks, what kind of house would you buy? What city would you live in? Recently, the most expensive zip code in AMERICA was revealed. Of course, it's in California. WHAT ABOUT ALABAMA?

No, no, no, no, NO! This columnist could live the rest of my life without being made aware of another story about spiders. I know I'm not the only person living in Tuscaloosa, Alabama with a deep hatred of spiders (and many other critters) that I will never get over. Very few people love spiders.

Who’s got the best fries in Tuscaloosa? I'm talking about the absolute BEST. What do you think? What comes to mind as you read this headline? The ones that are PERFECTLY salted and delicious. Can you taste it yet?

Some families in the Tuscaloosa, Alabama region and surrounding areas are having to go to war day in and day out with these monsters. They DESTROY THINGS! LOTS OF THINGS! Feral essentially means in a wild state after escape from captivity.
