JD Crowe: ‘Tommy Tuberville runs for governor’ caption contest already has a winner

This is an opinion cartoon.

A not-so-politically correct but near perfect snarky remark put an end to this goobernatorial caption contest before it started.

Tommy Tuberville officially announced on Tuesday that he is running for governor of Alabama. That’s no surprise. I have been dealing with a family emergency the last several days and sadly wasn’t prepared to roll out a toon for Tubby’s announcement.

But I did think this news would make for a good caption contest for my weekly newsletter, Crowe Jam. And I was right.

As I was putting together the newsletter late Tuesday night, a legendary Crowe Jammer captioneer sent me a simple message with a near perfect caption for the make-shift cartoon I was cobbling:

“From Meemaw to Hee Haw.” – David Morris

Drop the digital caption mic, dude. You win.
