Texas Locals Rally To Help Sad, Messed Up Randy Travis

When bruised, belligerent Randy Travis was arrested after a car accident, the locals went into overdrive.

A couple of them ran to the jail, one to offer the faded country singer his cash bail money and a ride home, and the other to offer legal services and a Texas Longhorns hat to shield Randy's fucked up face from the photographers.

Sherman, Texas is a closeknit, caring community, we're told--the kind of place that truly reaches out and cares for their own.

Well, it sounds more like enabling to me.

And I certainly hope they show the same kind of caring to the non-celebrities who are found laying drunk in the road, and who then threaten to shoot and kill the officers.

I read somewhere (TMZ?) that one of the enablers was a lawyer who happened to offer his services if needed -- in other words, an ambulance chaser.

Sounds like a CW song:

 

"Lyin' on the Highway, nekkid and drunk,

Shootin' off my mouth like some pissant punk."

I'll just add one of my fave country tune titles:

"Thank God and Greyhound, he's gone"
