Thank you Ty and Stephen! You are two of my favorite comedians. I'm the Parks Superintendent for the City of Grants Pass and you missed my Dollar Mountain Trail Planning meeting at Council Chambers on March 25th. I hope to see you both there!!

[@heatherremlin8607]

Let's hear it for the great state of Oregon!!!

One other fun fact about the town, they have an In-N-Out burger place. It used to be the most northern restaurant in their chain. Now its the Kaiser, Or restaurant a little North of Salem, Or. When you visit the area don't forget the Oregon Caves in Cave Junction! Then get on Hwy 62 (near Medford) and head up to Crater Lake national park.

@@vikmanphotography7984 Or perhaps grass stains, I think we thought too deeply about this and it just sounded funny to high schoolers to say it wrong.

[@michaellasfetto5810]

Ironically, no. Their high school also has a turf field, so you wouldn't even get grass stains from marching there. Their uniforms last I checked are black jumpers and shoes with blue and silver tops. They've been in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade within the past 10 years, so imagined if you googled it, you would be able to see a clip of them. I think they were the first Oregon band in the parade in something like 40 years.

Great bit! Loved it! My family is from that area, though I now live in Portland.

He was later recommissioned as a general during the Civil War. You may have heard of him. Yes, it's all about weed.
