When Ted Nugent still lived in Michigan my wife bought me a hunting package at his game ranch "Sunrise Acres" to hunt a Russian Boar. I got there a couple of hours early and sat in my pickup truck outside the locked gates to the place. After a while I saw Ted driving around in a 1960's Ford Bronco that was painted in Zebra stripes. He was throwing out piles of corn to feed the various animals.He had his son Rocco with him,who was about 8 years old. He had a buffalo herd in there as well as boar and all manor of whitetail and European deer. he finished dumping corn and drove up to the gates and unlocked them to leave. When he drove through the gates the Bronco stalled. The old rubber fuel line had rotted out and fell apart. He said that he would be stranded until his men that would be coming to meet me arrived. So I offered him a ride somewhere. He accepted my offer and asked me to take him to the hardware store in the nearest town about 5 miles away to buy some rubber hose.He told his boy to go to the taxidermists house that was right off of the hunting property. On the way he pointed out the grave sites of his first wife and his parents. We had a nice conversation during the ride and I told him that he didn't seem to be the Wango Tango guy that I expected. He said that was just a persona. I was supposed to hunt in the morning but he told his men to give me an extra hunt that day to show his gratitude. I got a 350lb boar.
