Rosco had to of been the biggest hero in Hazzard with all the famous bands he got to play at the Boar's Nest.

Until they start talking amongst each other, warning them to stay away from Hazzard on their day off

I'd vote for Rosco and Boss Hogg. I might get thrown in jail occasionally, but it would be easy to escape and there's all that fine entertainment.

[@hamptonmanufacturing3566]

Hands-down one of my favourite shows of all time. Absolutely crazy how special all of these actors were. My dog is named after Roscoe. Try to imagine that show without him. It just would not have been the same 😊😊

[@devonmartinez4961]

This episode literally introduced me to this group and song now I have it on my phone and love it.

The celebrity speed trap During the show's second season, the show's writers began flirting with the idea of incorporating a "celebrity speed trap" into some of the episodes, as a means to feature top country stars of the day performing their hits. On its first couple of instances, the "Speed Trap" was featured early in the story, but for most of the cases, it was featured in the last few minutes of an episode, often used when the main story was running too short to fill episode time. The "celebrity speed trap" feature was essentially similar: Aware that a big-name country star was passing through the area, Boss Hogg would order Rosco to lower the speed limit on a particular road to an unreasonable level (using a reversible sign, with one speed limit on one side and another, far lower, on the back), so that the targeted singer would be in violation of the posted limit. The singer would be required to give a free performance at the Boar's Nest in exchange for having their citations forgiven; the performer would then perform one of their best-known hits or other popular country music standard, while the Dukes, Boss, Rosco, Enos, Cletus, Cooter, and other patrons whooped and hollered in enjoyment of the performance. More often than not, the performer would give a sarcastic parting shot to Boss and Rosco. Singers who were featured in the "speed trap" segments were: Hoyt Axton Donna Fargo Freddy Fender Doug Kershaw (on the original soundtrack) The Oak Ridge Boys (twice) Roy Orbison Buck Owens Johnny Paycheck (lip-syncing an original recording) Mel Tillis Dottie West Tammy Wynette Waylon Jennings (the show's narrator) Honorable Mentions: Mickey Gilley, Loretta Lynn!!!!!!!!!!
