Another fun fact I only just discovered (forgive me, I'm real slow at times... )

Not one of Lynyrd Skynyrd's famous band members hailed from Alabama. Their song "Sweet Home Alabama" was actually a response to Neil Young's two songs, "Southern Man" and "Alabama".

Also, of course, the band is famously known for naming themselves in a mock tribute to a PE teacher, but did you know they were originally called "The Noble Five"?

Music is complicated sometimes...
