Should we issue an Amber Alert for The Buckster?

I messaged t206hound to see if he knew anything. If the trail runs cold we may need to take drastic measures.

My bad guys. I've been holding Buck hostage. He's been having a good time though.

He went to an LSU game (that's my son holding him outside Mike the Tiger's habitat)



He also went to a Saints game (I didn't bring him inside the Superdome b/c I was scared that I would lose him or something... beer and Bucky don't mix).



And I took him to meet an American hero. This is Lester Tenney, a Bataan Death March survivor and author of My Hitch In Hell. Buck, my wife, and I went to hear him speak about his experiences at a lecture at the WWII Museum in New Orleans.




I also have a few more pics but they're still on my phone. I don't know who is next on the list but I'll work on getting Buck sent off to his new home.

I got a PM request from someone that had asked to receive Buck a while back in this thread. So it looks like he's got a new home for now. It sounds like he's got a nice little road trip coming up in the near future.

If Buck wants to visit Mardis Gras let me know. It is right around the corner.

As much as it saddens me, I sent Buck on to his new home yesterday. I know he's got many more adventures coming up and I'm looking forward to seeing some more pictures of his travels.

Here are a few more photos of his recent stay in Louisiana.

He tagged along with my Dad and I to the opening game of the 2014 LSU baseball season. I have season tickets and know the lady that scans tickets at the gate so she let Buck in without a ticket. VIP status.



And our last outing together was this past Saturday. I took Buck with me to run the Mardi Gras Mambo 15K in downtown Baton Rouge. After the run we stopped by the state capitol (since everyone has been trying to get him with the capitol building in each state). LA's is the tallest and it's not easy trying to get all of that building into 1 picture.





The names of all 50 states and the year that they were admitted into the union are carved into the steps leading up to the capitol building.

Default Map - Travels of Large Ass

So I started plotting out a map of Buck's travels. I think I have all of the locations that he's been to so far and I started adding in pictures that were posted in this thread. If anyone would like to add to the map, feel free to do so.
