We Found Dr Pepper’s Grave, Left A Present
Jeff and Justin stayed at Jeff’s childhood home the first night of their journey. Then they stopped by the church bazaar at Darnestown Presbyterian Church in Maryland to check out some nice arts and crafts. After that, they set their sights on Dr. Pepper’s grave. YES. You read that right, the legendary Dr. Pepper.
It was a five hour drive from Darnestown, Maryland to Rural Retreat, Virginia to find the grave but they did. And you will not believe that when they got there, well someone else had the same idea. Kind of crazy!
Did you see them visit Cowtown Cowboy Outfitters? They tried on some amazing outfits to get ready to crash the CMAs. See the video here.
What Is The “CMA Crashers”
Last year, the Andie Summers Show won the CMA for Major Market Broadcast Personality. Andie & Shannon were invited to fly to Nashville and accept the award while being able to interview a ton of artists.
This year, XTU was nominated for Major Market Station of the Year. I believe this is the 4th straight year of being nominated for Major Market Station of the Year and unfortunately, we did not take home the Win! Super bummer!
How can you not have XTU down at the CMA Awards? That would be a travesty!
So…What did we decide to do? Shhh, don’t tell anyone. We decided to Crash the CMA’s. Jeff Kurkjian from The Andie Summers Show and XTU weekend DJ extraordinaire Justin Franiak will rent a car and drive down to Nashville. The CMA’s are being held on Wednesday, November 8th and you need a ticket to get in. They might not be able to get a ticket but the artist interviews are being held on Monday & Tuesday.

Is Buc-ee's Food Good? We Tried It
On our road to Nashville from Philly, we had to try Buc-ee’s food to figure out if it is worth the hype. But first, we want you to learn a little bit about WHY we are driving across the country!
As we drive across the country, along the way, weare making stops like Cowtown Cowboy Outfitters, Dr. Pepper’s Grave and the Birthplace of Country Music Museum. Check out all their stops on our CMA Crashers page on the website.

Is Buc-ee’s Food Good?
We tried it! First, let’s take you inside an actual Buc-ee’s! If you don’t know what it is, it is a staple in the south. A MASSIVE grocery store and rest stop, clothing store, it’s basically a giant Walmart if I am being honest.
Check it out.
The food review is right after the photos!
