You don’t know who Stingray is, you say? Well, that’s a shame – he’s world-famous, in Oktibbeha County.

Stingray is the portly Mississippi State dude who’s made himself a celebrity – sorta – on YouTube by doin’ videos that trash-talk the teams his alma mater (maybe; we’re bein’ charitable) is about to play. And we notice him when he pops off about LSU – like for example here and here.

So it’s that time of year again, and here’s the obligatory Stingray video. Gotta figure the people cringing the most while watchin’ this will be the State fans rather than the LSU folks…

They disabled the comments under this on the YouTube page. I’m gonna bet you can figure out why pretty quick.

Skip Bertman used to tell the joke that Starkville was Biloxi Indian for “trailer park.” And he used to say that once a tornado had gone through downtown Starkville and done $500,000 worth of improvements.

Skip was basically talkin’ about this cat.
