So, they got a movie filmed in my hometown...

But what started out innocently enough—"We weren't grinding, just slow-dancing," says Fowler—quickly turned ugly. An angry voice came over the speakers telling the couple to "Get your butts off of the floor!" and the rest of the bar started booing, cursing, and hurling epithets at them. When they left later, they found the fender of their Nissan Altima smashed in. The mark is still there.

If Sacha Baron Cohen's latest film, Brüno, is to be trusted, this story is typical of Ft. Smith, a Wild-West-meets-Old-South city wedged between the Ozarks and the Oklahoma border.


(Yes, this is the Fort Smith, Arkansas in which I reside...)

LOL that's why I should finish reading the article before hitting the Post Comment button.

I figured the ad was just ironic placement.
