Water Tower With Johnny Cash Silhouette Springs Leak In Most Unfortunate Place
2022-05-18
[NotTheBee] In Kingsland, Arkansas, the hometown of the incomparable Johnny Cash, the water tower which bears his silhouette has sprung a rather unfortunate leak.

Actually, because it's Arkansas, the "leak" was started by someone who took a gun and shot the Man in Black in a rather compromising spot.

I'm sorry, I cannot stop laughing at this video.

Does that make me immature? Sure.

They say it's no laughing matter for the city, however.

Kingsland Mayor Luke Neal said the town is "losing about 30,000 gallons of water per day."

Now it's costing the town about $200 each day-- totaling about $1,200 so far.

"You kind of run on a tighter budget in small towns like this, because really all you've got to work with... things like this can set you back a little bit," Neal said.
