The Man Behind the Wheel, The Myth, The Flattened Legend
Howdy, road warriors and critter connoisseurs! I'm Bill "Roadkill" Johnson, the self-proclaimed Picasso of the Pavement, the Da Vinci of Dead Varmints, the Michelangelo of Mashed Mammals. For over four decades, I've been turning highway tragedies into roadside treasures!
Born and raised in Possum Trot, Kentucky, I developed a keen eye for spotting critters on the road at an early age. What started as a hobby soon became a passion, and now it's a way of life!
Bill's Roadkill Philosophy
- Waste not, want not
- One man's roadkill is another man's dinner
- Always carry a spatula and a cooler in your truck
- If it's still twitching, it's too fresh
Fun Fact:
In 1992, I set the world record for the "Longest Distance Traveled in a Vehicle Powered by Roadkill Grease". I drove my modified 1976 Ford F-150 from Anchorage, Alaska to Key West, Florida using nothing but rendered fat from roadkill animals. It took 3 months and 147 raccoons, but I made it!
My Mission
Through this website, I aim to educate folks about the untapped potential of roadkill. It's not just about free meals (though that's a big part of it!). It's about respecting nature, reducing waste, and making the most of unfortunate circumstances. Join me on this wild ride, and remember: always keep your eyes on the road... and the shoulder!
