Remembering the great “Wild Thing”
Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... Every time I hear the opening wail of an electric guitar, which opened the Troggs’ popular version of “Wild Thing,” I still see and hear Kenny Harrison’s joy as he howled the lyrics when the song blasted over the airwaves of his dearly beloved, blue ‘59 Chevy Bel Air. Kenny and Joe Brantley were the captains of the 1965-66 Blue Devil football team. Kenny, as was his fellow Blue Devil football captain, Joe Brantley, was polite, kind, and popular with everyone, including their teachers. A known jokester, Kenny, probably frustrated some of the latter group. He especially joked about anything having to do with books, classes, teachers, and tests. Please don’t misunderstand. Kenny and Joe never did anything malicious or unkind like some of the older students, who left live chickens in a teacher’s car – for hours. Those chickens ruined her vehicle. That was never Joe or Kenny’s style, nor was writing THE four-letter expletive across the school’s front façade just days before the Class of 1965 graduated. Kenny’s Mama and the Catholic Church taught him better than that. Joe knew better from his mama and his Baptist upbringing.
