kgb Agents– Tuscaloosa to Panama City
Wednesday, March 11th, 2009Oh I come from Alabamy with a banjo on my knee.
Well, not quite.
Special Agent Damschroder here. Today was a day of twists and turns. We began the day in Tuscaloosa, AL, packing up out squad cars to head south to Florida for Spring Break. As we put our keys in the ignitions, we got a call from the local television station saying that they’d like to do a story on us. Off we sped to the University of Alabama to meet with the news team. After a couple victory laps and an interview, we headed out for Panama City Beach, Fl. We’ll be in Panama City Beach for most of the week, so come say hello and get yourself a special KGB T-shirt!

kgb On the Way to Tuscaloosa
Monday, March 9th, 2009Special Agent Jame:
On the road again….deep in the heart of M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I. Well, actually–to be honest it was through Texas, Louisanna (Hello again LA!), Mississippi, and then Alabama! The second state in alphabetical order. Booyah! We’ve arrived in ALABAMA!
It was a ten hour drive and our carvan was split up and hot on the trail of competition. Who would be first to arrive in Tuscaloosa Alabama? I’ll allow Agent Taylor aka Agent Swamp Rat to indulge further.
I was more interested with the roadkill we encountered beside the road and with the state troopers that pulled over a total of four people in the state of Mississippi alone!
What’s the average mph OVER the speed limit do most drivers go on the highway? Text it up road warriors. 542 542
We’ll catch you in Tuscaloosa tomorrow.

Kgb Special Agent Shannon
Arriving in Houston March 5th, 2009, we checked-in, then went on our mission to scope out locations. We hunted down college campus radio stations including KTRU at Rice University and University of Houston KUHF. We ended up being invited to an event at the Discovery Green Park downtown Houston Friday, where we encountered some of the most intrigued patrons for a live concert. Live music, great crowd, and beautiful weather summed-up our kgb Houston exciting beginnings.
Signing off…til next time.
