I’ve been in East TN most of my life and had not heard about the Erwin Elephant hanging.
Truthfully it perfectly represents something our community would do. TOP that FL man… Tennesseans hanging elephants since 1916. |

Many years ago in Denmark (in the 70s, I think), an Elephant got lose and was rampaging a bit.
Police killed it with MP5s. 9mm was apparently perfectly adequate. |

When I lived in Bangkok, there was a mahout with a female elephant walking down Sukhumvit near Nana SkyTrain station. Well, apparently there was another mahout on a side street (Soi 11) with a bull elephant. He wasn't in must (periodic testosterone surge condition), but apparently just having a female around had him ready to go.
When 2 elephants decide they're going to do the deed and block one of the world's busiest streets, there's not much 2 skinny Thais can do about it. That was the moment I (and everyone else on the street) discovered that elephant penises are about 6 feet long and prehensile like their trunks. They also produce what can only be described as copious amounts of fluid. People hooting and hollering, horns blaring, and 2 mahouts screaming in Thai at the elephants. Actually a pretty dangerous situation, but one of the funniest things I have ever seen.
