Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 The funniest thing just happened. A friend that I work with called, she had been looking at pics at www.al.com of the storm. She saw pictures of damage in Bayou La Batre, Alabama, and couldn't believe there was really a Bayou La Batre. She loved the movie Forrest Gump, but figured the town was fictional. (Bayou La Batre is where Bubba, Forrest's friend was from, and where Forrest started his shrimping business). She was amazed to see it wasn't. And then I told her I went to high school there, she was even more amazed. Of course, the movie wasn't filmed there, but the town is definitely real. Just a funny thing! Sharon H.
