I was a freshman at Auburn. I lived in Atlanta and all my "lake" days, prior to Auburn, were spent at the cess pool known as Lake Lanier. So, 3 new friends and I went to Lake Martin one Saturday. All three of them had their "steady" girlfriends with them and I, had a blind date. To say "I outkicked my coverage" was an understatement. The girl was beautiful and, 5 years later became my wife. But, I digress. So, we go to Chimney Rock. Us guys climb to the top and I look down and say "Oh Shi!." Well, these 3 guys were brought up on Lake Martin and had been off the rock many times. Not only do they jump off the highest part of the rock but, they dove. So, here I am not even wanting to jump but, knowing I have to dive to save face. So I did. I felt like my shoulders were wrapped around my ankles but, I survived and thoroughly impressed by blind date bride to be. To this day I owe a debt of gratitude to Mr. Budweiser. There is no way I dive off that rock without his encouragement. And by the way, I haven't jumped off that stupid rock since.
