Cooter, Cooter everywhere

BRBTV had the pleasure of chatting with Ben Jones, aka Cooter of "The Dukes of Hazzard," over the phone a couple days before Christmas for the print release of the "Them Dukes! Them Dukes!" book. One of the things he noted was that he sure makes a heck of a lot of appearances, particularly because he has two locations of his "Cooter's Place" museums and stores of "Dukes" memorabilia, which he spends quite a lot of time at. Besides that, he's still a busy boy. Here's what he's up in the next few months, if you're thinking you'd like to catch 'im:
