The thing is, they've been offered so much money from Cooters place and they still won't sell it. They like the location of it on flat rock Road, it sucks they won't off it but one day it'll get sold.... I just hope I'll be the one buying it

@@ChunkeyMonkey40 Does anyone know what that building was before it was used in the first 5 episodes? I'm sure it was only for the external shots, while the internal filming of the bar scenes were done in a studio somewhere else.

@@ChunkeyMonkey40 If you watch the scene in episode 1 where they drive up in front of the Boar's Nest, you can see what almost looks like a big hole in the roof on the left side. Wonder if back in 1978 this was just an old empty building on a country road which they could paint up quickly and make it look like a roadside bar?

​@willmont8258 I've been to covington and talked to some old locals and they've said that it was an actual bar as is in the show.

DUDEEEE THAT IS AWESOME TO BE ABLE TO SAY YOU SAW ALL THOSE GET SHOT!!!!!!! Thats sweet!!!!! In my next episode of Traveler, I did a tour of all the Dukes of Hazzard Film Locations! That video will be coming sometime this month!

@@ChunkeyMonkey40 I'll be watching that video! I grew up just 2 miles from the Boars Nest! Ben Jones {Cooter} was also living in Covington before Dukes was filmed & was actually in the movie Moonrunners thats how he got the part for Cooter {by Guy Waldron}! He also served as our Democratic district Representative from 1988-1994! Catherine Bach {Daisy} used to own a ranch house alongside I-20 off the access road right before you get to Covington but only for a short time! Burt Reynolds used to live in the biggest mansion in Covington {up hwy 81} during the late '70s & '80s but he sold it in the '90s & they turned the whole property into a $500,000 & up home community with the mansion used as a community center! I havent lived there since 1998 but still go there to visit every now & again & had some great memories & most of my family still lives there!

Yee Haa!!

Sweeet thats cool!!! Im glad you enjoyed, i have plenty of great dukes videos all across my channel!

I was amongst the lucky few in this generation to have grown up watching the Dukes of Hazzard. My dad used to play us reruns on CMT all the time, my whole family has a deep connection to the Dukes of Hazzard.

Doesn’t mean we can’t like it I watched it growing up an I’m only 29

Thank you so much!!!!!

Same here man I love this video!!!! It was such a cool place to visit!

I'm an old honky from Covington Georgia {Hazzard County} & my black girlfriend & I giggle every time she calls me one

I agree it's f***** up they took off dukes of Hazzard I grew up watching it show like you I'm 39 years old I'm middlely challenged I talked about is dukes of Hazzard or Ninja turtles or something and they don't know Jack about the civil war or never want to learn in today's world I think God is coming back I want to buy your sticker Matthew Porter sentinel Oklahoma 204 South 5th Street

It's all good brother! I'm glad you still saw it and enjoyed it dude. Happy new year!

@@ChunkeyMonkey40 happy new year to u to stay rebel brother

Thats not the issue, the issue was that he was talking quietly. The camera gets amazing audio, but that doesnt turn out when you have to amplify the audio to hear them. Plus the radio was jammed in the garage scene and I didnt think to ask him to turn it down, wasn't really in the right mindset considering id been on the road for a week and a half down south in a truck with no ac.

Yes there was but i didnt film it, nothing significant in there

@@ChunkeyMonkey40 Luke`s my favorite character in the show, I`ll def have to get myself out there one day to see it!

@@sharonrowland1196 ok I am going to try and figure out how to put a picture in here for you to see it I couldn't believe it came from the factory half painted the way it is so I said this could be something rare or I'm out of luck lol

That was for one episode

Yes but did it become a general Lee

Im sure warner bros used it as a general lee in a later episode

Same

The general lee was originally supposed to be grey, the same color that confederate soldiers wore in the war. They changed it to orange because it stood out more on film

@@ChunkeyMonkey40 OK. But, where was the bar fight in the movie filmed?

Uhhh the movie? Who cares about that lol! That movie sucked, the only good thing about it was the car stunts

Its a nice spot!
