John Schneider Doesn't Think Bubba Watson Took Confederate Flag Off His General Lee-- Part 1

From Oct. 31, 2019, Fox News by Gary Gastelu.

John Schneider played Bo Duke on the TV show "Dukes of Hazzard" and says he doubts that golfer Bubba Watson  lived up to his promise to remove the Confederate flag from the iconic Dodge Charger  "General Lee" that they drove.  Supposedly he was to replace it with a U.S. flag.

Watson bought the fully restored car in 2012 for $121,000.  This is the actual General Lee that was shown jumping over a police car in the show's opening credits.  It was designated as  "Lee 1" by the production team, and later repainted and reused in a different role then sent to a Georgia junkyard where it was rediscovered twenty years later.

Hundreds of stunt cars were used during the show's seven-year run, but Watson's is one of only two known to have survived the  from the Georgia shoots before production was moved to California.

Watson is a long-time fan of the show and drove it often in public but the Confederate flag painted on its roof became an issue when NASCAR canceled a scheduled parade lap by the car before the Phoenix race that year.

Really, NASCAR, the General Lee?
