Jack Daniel's and the legend of
the Wyooter Hooter !

Before you scroll down to all the Jack Daniel's "Wyooter Hooter" merchandise you have to read the following story to understand what it is all about.

How Lem Hopkins survived a brush with the "Tennessee Wyooter"
It's a quiet moonlit October night deep in the Tennessee hills. Lem Hopkins and his best dog Lightnin' are walkin' Peabody Ridge, lookiri for possum. Lem thinks nothing of the huge black shadowy mass that looms ahead. Just a tree, right? Wrong, Lem. Suddenly, the "tree" emits a thunderous roar and a great hairy paw reaches down and nearly scoops up poor Lightnin'.

The Tennessee Wyooter is lookin' for an evening meal.

Again and again, the great paw descends while Lem and Lightnin' do a

 dance never danced before.

Just when it looks like the monster won't go hungry, Lightnin' scoots between his legs with Lem close behind. Which makes the Wyooter hoppin' mad. Because the Tennessee Wyooter is incapable of turning himself around, you see, once he's landed.

Yes, Lem and Lightnin' lived to tell their tale, though Lightnin' tells it poorly.

So lift a Jack Daniel's Wyooter Hooter to them both. And remember, the only good side of a Tennessee Wyooter is the back one.

Wyooter Glasses

Over the years Jack Daniel's made some real cool merchandise items to promote this "story" about the Tennessee Wyooter. I do got some nice items to share with you so.. here we go.

Let's start with the glasses everybody has got (My guess is that 90 % of the JD collectors have got this glass...)

To make your own Wyooter Hooter you need 1 part of Jack Daniels, 4 Parts of 7 up and a dash of Grenadine for the "bloody look".

You can use these stirers for your Wyooter Hooter drink:

and whipe the left-overs from you face with the tissue:

Plastic Wyooter Tall Shot glass

Here is another great Wyooter Hooter item. It's a tall, plastic shot glass with a pretty cool orange print on front and back side of the glass. It's about 2 and a half inch high.

The Legend told by Lem Hopkins

Pretty rare item I got in my Jack Daniel's Whyooter collection is this cassette tape with a "tru" story told by Lem Hopkins.

Click on the tape and it will start playing (keep in mind this is a mp3 file that is big.... real big ...but worth the waiting time!). It is a really... really scary horror story told in a good ol' Southern style so .. dimm your lights, close the door and crank up the volume!

The next sound piece is the introduction to a good Wyooter party. It's a little smaller in size but still pretty big.. have patice with the download...


Click the tape (Part 2)

I got this real nice enveloppe filled with Wyooter goodies to promote a Halloween party for your friends. It is a pretty rare item.

One of the piece inside the enveloppe was a block with notes like tis one below:
