And here I always thought people were kidding when they said southerners don't know the war ended...

Maybe the shooter was aiming for the guy next to the guy that got shot.

That was the basis for a mystery that came out this year called "South of Shiloh" by Chuck Logan. A Civil War re-enactor from the North gets shot and killed during a re-enactment down South, and the people investigating the shooting (the man's widow and the man she hires to find the sniper) figure it was just accident. The intended victim was the man standing next to the man who got shot.

When I was living in South Carolina, I'd occasionally see the bumper sticker:

Yanks 1 Rebels 0.  Halftime.

Save your Dixie Plates and Cups, the South will rise again.

I have extended relations who still argue the point.  Its crazy

What's the difference in a Southern Civil War buff and a neutered puppy?

The puppy eventually stops whining about what it lost.
