When you were a kid did you ever play by pretending to be a character you’d seen in a movie, or on a TV show? Of course youngsters have done that for ages, and it was particularly evident in 1932 with an Athens boy. However, he got a bit carried away, as described in the June 9, 1932 edition of the
Athens Weekly Review headline: "Attempts to Imitate Tarazan [sic] and Received Serious Cut.” The reporter related he details: "Billie LaRue, young son of Mr. and Mrs. E.B. LaRue suffered a serious gash on his forehead when he fell from a tree at the family home Tuesday afternoon." So what happened? It seems that he was "attempting to build a 'tarzan' house in a tree when the accident occurred."
