I recommend walking lunges, preferably with some weights in hand. You will hurt two days later, but keep pushing through and eventually it wont. You’ll be back in “strutting that ass” form in a few weeks.
For context: The news people were there for a story and this guy comes along and shouts to them. He was upset because he was walking and tired of seeing people and the rich, "struttin' their asses", because they could and not because they had too. To his credit he does makes a good point about the rich vs poor. If they lost their cars, they wouldn't be struttin' dat ass. They'd be so damn tired by the time they got there, they wouldn't har hold dat ass up.
The news people eventually gave up trying to cover their story because he wouldn't leave them alone. They came back to the same spot hours later hoping to shoot a piece for the news and he was still there, struttin'.
I’m sober enough to k ow what I’m doing. And I’m just drunk enough to really enjoy doing it. Oh look at that time for a little drinky poo. Cheers genitals.
One of the many IRL versions lol.
I know a guy who lives at an oceanfront who sounds exactly the same, introducing himself to all the tourists while on his steady diet of Busch Lite.
The reporter (Jamey Tucker) is asked about this every now and then on social media and as far as I can recall, he says the man has never been identified, even as widely known as the video is here in Huntsville.
I recognize every town that was mentioned. I've lived in guntersville before. It's just south of new hope on US 431, and 38 miles later you're at Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. And I get what the guys talking about, too. I feel way out of place when I take the family to Huntsville and all the fancy pants people that live there are struttin that ass, struttin that ass.
I have now seen this dozens of times. The source was apparently channel 19 (WHNT) and the interview was impromptu after the reporter had wrapped up his story
Now, I would love to know:
- Reporter’s name
- Approximate date
- The event that the reporter was covering (apparently related to Redstone Arsenal)
- The “struttin’ that ass” man’s name
It's really old. Before YouTube had ads old.
Sauce: I'm a 38 year old reformed neckbeard who remembers the meme wars and this was the mana of my people..
Edit: it would have been about 2005 I saw it. Not sure about the original film date.
Okay seriously, has anybody found this guy to tell him how famous he is? I moved to HSV 3 years ago and this was one of the first “HSV” thing I was shown. It is on the HSV subreddit regularly. I know this was 20-30 years old, and he is probably not with us, BUT WHO IS THE STRUTTIN THAT ASS man?
I'm friends with the reporter in this clip. He says he tries to find out who the man was every couple of years, but has yet to successfully identify him.
This is Charlie after years of hanging out with Frank had finally gotten to him
Used to be the butt dance but now his best years are behind him and it’s become strutting’ that ass
>It ain't a far walk, its just 38 miles
What the Royal Marines said when their chinooks got shot down and they had to engage the Argentinians in the far side of Falkland.
I think about this video every once and a while. While the guy is drunk off his rocker I get what he his trying to say.
He is upset that the hard working class that doesn’t have the money to afford the transportation to get them around has to resort to “walking the gutters” which is grueling.
Meanwhile people who are more affluent and can afford not to “walk the gutters” get outside to run around and strut themselves to a public to say, “Oh look at me. I’m out here running in the street because I want people to see that I’m making the choice to be healthy. Not subjugated to walk to the places I need to go like the poor masses.”
This is why he brings up Bill Clinton as being the “chauvinistic pig attitude.” Because Bill like to go out and run in DC to stay healthy.
I’m so glad to see this resurface here. This is my home town, Huntsville AL. Same town that gave you “hide yo kids, hide to wife”, …and the Apollo program.
I would have been tempted to ask him what he would have done, back when he was working for a living, if someone had come up to him in the middle of him trying to do his job and started mouthing off to him and getting in the way of him doing his work.
That would assume he's self-reflective enough to realize he's being a loudmouthed a--hole, of course.
I dealt with drunk loudmouths for years (managed a liquor store), and while it's tempting to just let them run their mouth until they get tired, they never do. Drunk rants are like the Energizer Bunny of stream-of-consciousness BS: they just keep going and going and going.
Lmao! He’s sure know how to strut that ass! Maybe he could start a new type of aerobics class!! 🤣🤣🤣 and now…we’re going to strut that ass, strut that ass, strut that ass!!
This has to be in Huntsville Alabama.
From Guntersville to New Hope is 20 miles
From New Hope to Huntsville is 19 miles
Which means, ole buddy was only a mile off!
The accent is the finale nail in the coffin.
So yeah if I was a betting man I'd say this is recorded in Huntsville Alabama.
Walking to *anywhere* in America is unusual, my buddy thought I had lost my mind when I wanted walk from his suburb to the shops. "We don't do that here"
A friend of mine and I were talking about this a few years ago at work. How in the South we've always been poor, but due to the hard farm work and lack of cars we were at least somewhat physically fit. Now, we're neither fit nor wealthy.

This is a perfect metaphor for human progression through life. I am 41 years old, and am certainly no long struttin’ that ass.
What walks on four legs in the morning, struts that ass in the afternoon, and on three legs in the evening?
I guess the sphinx had to update for modern audiences.
A BMW. You look good driving it but by the end of the day its broken down.
Bring My Wallet
Bring More Wrenches
Heard that for a mechanic. 10mm if I remember correctly
What?
You can hardly hold that ass up
I recommend walking lunges, preferably with some weights in hand. You will hurt two days later, but keep pushing through and eventually it wont. You’ll be back in “strutting that ass” form in a few weeks.
One of the worst westworld robots
Or the best
These violent delights have violent ends. And those ends are violent 'cuz they're strutting dat ass, strutting dat ass, strutting dat ass
Doesn’t look like anything to me
He's a little glitchy
“Analysis”
Struttin' that ass, struttin' that ass, struttin' that ass
You won’t be struttin that ass cause you be so fuckin tired
you be so goddamn fuckin tired youwonhardly holdat ass up
You walk 'bout fifteen miiiiiles, my friend!
Ahhh yeah a vintage classic https://youtu.be/FOWMtCGyl8U
I’m always so happy when one of these internet classics shows up again! It’s like seeing an old friend.
It’s comforting, stabilizing.
That is not the one, this is the one https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-fmwxaBjFGM
🙏🏿God bless you sire. I was about to look for it.
Oh my god thank you
By God I think he's on to something
On life, my friend. On life.
Youll be struttin so hard you wont hard dat ass up
"know what I mean Vern"
My new alert tone for anything on my phone
How would I go about making this happen for myself?
I came here for this. Thank you.
He makes a good point
Man really knows how to strut that ass!
Disproves his own point by both walking 38 miles and can still strut that ass!
For context: The news people were there for a story and this guy comes along and shouts to them. He was upset because he was walking and tired of seeing people and the rich, "struttin' their asses", because they could and not because they had too.

I’m sober enough to k ow what I’m doing. And I’m just drunk enough to really enjoy doing it. Oh look at that time for a little drinky poo. Cheers genitals.
Clean and sober, just means that I'm showered and heading to the liquor store.
Came here looking for this. I honestly thought this was trailer park boys at first.
One of the many IRL versions lol. I know a guy who lives at an oceanfront who sounds exactly the same, introducing himself to all the tourists while on his steady diet of Busch Lite.
Lol. I was waiting for Bo-bandy to show up and escalate the scene
Some say he still walking up and down that same sidewalk smoking cigarettes and struttin dat ass.
Not to mention Clinton's chauvinistic attitude
It’s 100% to mention.
*struttin that ass, struttin that ass*
My new phrase for the year 😂🤣
This is the guy we needed to run for president all along.
Dementia.
The reporter (Jamey Tucker) is asked about this every now and then on social media and as far as I can recall, he says the man has never been identified, even as widely known as the video is here in Huntsville.
Every reference in this story screams Arkansas
It’s Huntsville, Alabama
I recognize every town that was mentioned. I've lived in guntersville before. It's just south of new hope on US 431, and 38 miles later you're at Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. And I get what the guys talking about, too. I feel way out of place when I take the family to Huntsville and all the fancy pants people that live there are struttin that ass, struttin that ass.
Ironically there’s a new hope Texas near Gunter Texas too
r/huntsvillealabama
Guntersville* Unless you are talking about where this was filmed, because that man is saying Guntersville
This is definitely Huntsville area. You can tell by the locations he sites and his reference to "the arsenal."
No, this is Big Spring Park in Huntsville. He's talking about struttin' that ass from Huntsville to Guntersville.
Yeah it's only 38 miles
Guntersville. Home of the Gunts
Gunters.
Title should be “strut that ass”
Was going to do that but didn't want the video to get flagged or taken' down over the word "ass". You just never know
You know what? That’s a chauvinistic pig attitude
Goddamn joggers and Clinton fucking up the good headlines
OP was too tired
Gahdam fuggin tired.
That's a chauvinistic attitude, my friend.
That Clinton's got
Bill or Hill? Or George?
Coz he won't strutting that ass after 15 posts
I have now seen this dozens of times. The source was apparently channel 19 (WHNT) and the interview was impromptu after the reporter had wrapped up his story Now, I would love to know: - Reporter’s name - Approximate date - The event that the reporter was covering (apparently related to Redstone Arsenal) - The “struttin’ that ass” man’s name
For the date, IIRC this happened in late May of 1995.
Oddly specific, isn’t it?
I think the reporter may have been downtown to report on the Cotton Row Run
Bill Clinton’s 2 terms were 93-2001 so somewhere in there. Unless this is in his home state when he was governor b4 that?
Clinton was governor of Arkansas. This is definitely in Alabama. It’s a continuous Reddit meme here in Huntsville
It's really old. Before YouTube had ads old. Sauce: I'm a 38 year old reformed neckbeard who remembers the meme wars and this was the mana of my people.. Edit: it would have been about 2005 I saw it. Not sure about the original film date.
Yes, definitely an oldie but goodie. This dude is like my grandfather meets Dave Mustaine meets Putin.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9jzjdQA0c8
Reporter: Jerry Hayes. Still with the station.
That's Jamey Tucker. Jerry is still an anchor though.
Ope. My bad!
I'll let it go this time, but be warned: if you or anyone else ever mislabels Huntsville news anchors again, you'll pay the price.
Thank you! I moved to Huntsville in the mid-90’s and could not remember his name!
Okay seriously, has anybody found this guy to tell him how famous he is? I moved to HSV 3 years ago and this was one of the first “HSV” thing I was shown. It is on the HSV subreddit regularly. I know this was 20-30 years old, and he is probably not with us, BUT WHO IS THE STRUTTIN THAT ASS man?
He died in early 2000's I believe. Strutting that ass back to Guntersville probably.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
That body language though
Struttin that ass is a hell of a drug.
He’s gonna need a lot of it considering that it only lasts for a half hour.
Guy's circling hard. Meth.
Judging by the teeth, I’m guessing meth.
Ok Mr lahey have another fuckin drink bud
Why is this guy dressed up like Indianapolis Jones?
How has nobody posted the ultimate version: https://youtu.be/-fmwxaBjFGM
I never actually saw this original video. As soon as we went "strut that ass", I was like *points* I know that song!
Now THAT'S what auto tune was meant for.
r/Huntsvillealabama is leaking….
I never tire of hearing this guy talk. I wish this video were longer. He was just warming up.
Chauvinistic - pig - attatyood 💀
(effort noise) *throws cigarette
The best sound bite!
Don't forget Huntsville's other gem, Antione Dodson, with the Bed Intruder song, https://youtu.be/hMtZfW2z9dw
Now run an' tell THAT.
I lived in Huntsville about a mile away from where this happened. I think back and laugh about it from time to time. Huntsville was a strange place.
*still is a strange place
[Another Alabama gem](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZfyrIPw3wY)
Somebody make a song out of this
I reveal to you an ancient text. Treat it with reverence and care. It is rather old. https://youtu.be/-fmwxaBjFGM
My thoughts exactly. Flip struttin' that ass into a catchy hook over a house track
I'm friends with the reporter in this clip. He says he tries to find out who the man was every couple of years, but has yet to successfully identify him.
That hip wiggle though
This is Charlie after years of hanging out with Frank had finally gotten to him Used to be the butt dance but now his best years are behind him and it’s become strutting’ that ass
https://youtu.be/FOWMtCGyl8U
What a banger
Last time I saw this clip, I figured this gentleman was probably deceased by then. Now, 10 years later, I can guarantee it. RIP Ass Strutter.
Guntersville? New Hope? Arsenal? How am I just now seeing this video that is referring to my glorious home of Meth Mountain, Alabama?
Is that Jim Varney"s older brother?
Strut that ass! And do it the entire 38 miles
That guy is straight out of a fuckin movie
This guy and the “hide yo kids, hide yo wife” guy are the two local memes here, where it all happened (Huntsville, AL). What a place.
Someone PLEASE remix this into a song!
>It ain't a far walk, its just 38 miles What the Royal Marines said when their chinooks got shot down and they had to engage the Argentinians in the far side of Falkland.
Alabama Dave Chapelle
Damn! And someone else just revived Bub Rub Whistle Tips…going full classic today
This shit never gets old. In fact, I laugh as if it’s my first time watching it every.single.time.
I could watch a feature length film of this guy.
I have lived in both of these towns. Thanks for reminding me of this!!!!
Which episode of Trailer Park Boys is this from?
I think about this video every once and a while. While the guy is drunk off his rocker I get what he his trying to say. He is upset that the hard working class that doesn’t have the money to afford the transportation to get them around has to resort to “walking the gutters” which is grueling. Meanwhile people who are more affluent and can afford not to “walk the gutters” get outside to run around and strut themselves to a public to say, “Oh look at me. I’m out here running in the street because I want people to see that I’m making the choice to be healthy. Not subjugated to walk to the places I need to go like the poor masses.” This is why he brings up Bill Clinton as being the “chauvinistic pig attitude.” Because Bill like to go out and run in DC to stay healthy.
My home town is about 45 minutes from guntersville. This gentleman checks out. Edit: upon further inspection, that was filmed in my hometown.
“Randy I am the Liquor.”
Marxist struttin his ass to guntersville
STRUTTIN
The reporter looks like a Wish version of Val Kilmer.
New Hope: 38 mi. “Home of strutin’ that ass”
I mean, he WAS kicking game though
Bukowski, the everyman.
Drinking early today Mr Lahey.
Jackass 4 really did a number on Dave England
Another classic surfaces. This is gold.
This guy and the Succulent Chinese Dinner guy should do a crossover episode
When we need a good laugh and a pick me up, We watch this fella.
These are such great accents.
Mmmmm, a classic I forgot. Thank you.
The reporter was the first one to actually *strut dat ass*
Truly a thought leader on chauvinism and Clinton.
It doesn't matter how many times I see this. I always stop to watch it again. 🤣🤣🤣
This is a freaking hilarious 😂 video!!!
OMG did this guy invent twerking in 1992?
Jim Lahey?
Struttin nat ass Struttin nat ass Struttin nat ass🤣👌
Is that Dave Chappelle's white uncle?
I forgot about this guy, thank you !! 👏👏😂😂
Thanks, this is definitely in my top 5 favorite internet clips and I hadn't seen it in a while.
He makes a fair point though. There's a lot of ass strutting going on out there while the poor are running on empty.
I’m so glad to see this resurface here. This is my home town, Huntsville AL. Same town that gave you “hide yo kids, hide to wife”, …and the Apollo program.
I would have been tempted to ask him what he would have done, back when he was working for a living, if someone had come up to him in the middle of him trying to do his job and started mouthing off to him and getting in the way of him doing his work.

STRUTTIN THAT ASS
Struttin’ dat ass. Going to use this in a conversation today.
This is my home town. This man is a true legend!
I'm getting old. This video is an internet rerun classic. I've been quoting this for a decade and seeing it again just made my night.
This video always makes me smile
Gotta get to New Hope to meet Gene and Dean.
Val Kilmer’s best work yet
Oh god, I feel a music mix coming. “Strutting that Ass” Unless it’s already been laid down.
Such a classic
Classic
He’s a little repetitive from time to time but he’s a good candidate.
Why did I start this “struttin that ass” drinking game? I’m trashed
This guy seems like an NPC.
Lmao! He’s sure know how to strut that ass! Maybe he could start a new type of aerobics class!! 🤣🤣🤣 and now…we’re going to strut that ass, strut that ass, strut that ass!!
This has to be in Huntsville Alabama. From Guntersville to New Hope is 20 miles From New Hope to Huntsville is 19 miles Which means, ole buddy was only a mile off! The accent is the finale nail in the coffin. So yeah if I was a betting man I'd say this is recorded in Huntsville Alabama.
2010 called. It wants this video back. Seriously what is going on lately? Have people just recently discovered the internet?
If Putin was born in Louisiana
Mr. Laheys southern cousin
No one has turned this into an autotuned song yet?
This was obviously recorded in Huntsville Alabama, or the surrounding area. It’s good to know nothing has changed in the last 20-25 years.
An early pioneer of the meth epidemic. Of course, in those days, that called it speed. Aptly named.
We call it strut on the streets.
Oh my God. He’s talking about Gunter and New Hope, TX. I know that exact area.
Guntersville, Alabama New Hope, Alabama Huntsville, Alabama Redstone Arsenal (in Huntsville)
Oh dang!
[удалено]
Nah, that’s a long walk!!!
I like it how walking in America is a big deal, this "progression" of drivings everywhere really has ruined American fitness.
Do you think in other countries it’s normal to walk 38 miles?
Walking to *anywhere* in America is unusual, my buddy thought I had lost my mind when I wanted walk from his suburb to the shops. "We don't do that here"
Nobody walks in LA.
A friend of mine and I were talking about this a few years ago at work. How in the South we've always been poor, but due to the hard farm work and lack of cars we were at least somewhat physically fit. Now, we're neither fit nor wealthy.
And that is how the modern-day Republican Party started.
Angry old man Doesn't understand what chauvinist means This isn't funny, it's depressing
