Forrest Gump

It is exactly that, Gump's running route mapped out for all to see. Gump ran from sea to shining sea no less than 3 times, no small feat. Below is a link to Gump's route which began in Greenbow, Alabama (Gump's fictional hometown) on Oct. 1, 1979.

According to this particular website this is historically accurate due to the newscast being viewed in the Greenbow barber shop. On that date President Carter collapsed due to heat exhaustion.

Try Youtube, while your there don't miss Weird Al Yankovic's song Gump, it's a hoot.

Bubba's full name was Benjamin Buford Blue, but his friends called him 'Bubba'

I'm pretty sure it was a Tuesday

Forrest Gump met President Nixon, President Kennedy, and President Johnson.

Lt. Dan wanted to serve just as a veteran. He thought it was his fate to fight and die in the was, just like all the other males in his family did. it was his mission to die for his country while in Vietnam. As for Bubba, he went to war to fight and leave. He was just there to serve because he had to. It wasn't his life dream to die in the war like Lt. Dan. He had future plans to own a shrimping boat and pursue that life dream. So in conclusion, yes Lt. Dan and Bubba relate to the war in Vietnam differently.

Football was Gump's ticket to college. The coach didn't care about Gump's IQ, only that he was fast.

He was named after Nathan Bedford Forrest, who was the first leader of the KKK (the Ku Klux Klan).

When Forrest was shown running across America, the only pier that is identifiable was California's Santa Monica pier. He was later shown running to a second pier which was intended to represent the east coast.

Forrest Gump is not a real person. He was a fictional character in a movie of the same title, but he will always live on in the hearts and minds of many. Tom Hanks, the actor who won an Oscar for playing Forrest Gump, is still alive.

Shrimping is the act of toe sucking or licking for sexual gratification of both persons. Not to be confused with felching which is an entirely different act altogether.

Lt. Dan Taylor was played by actor Gary Sinese who, thank goodness has both legs intact. To achieve the legless look for the movie the actor's legs were wrapped in blue cloth. The camera doesn't pick up that color so it looks as if the legs were just not there.

The Gump House was just a facade that was built for the filming of the movie.

Michael Jace played a member of the Black Panthers in the movie Forrest Gump.

No. It's called 'product placement' and is a free source of advertisment. Whether it really increases sales of a particular product has not really been studied.
