About This Quiz

"Whewww! Doggie!" How'd you like to take the General Lee across the county, side-stepping, twisting and speeding past the local law? It takes a special breed of family, like the Dukes, to moonshine the way they do. Are you up for the challenge?

They might be "just some good old boys, never meaning no harm," but Bo and Luke sure tend to get in trouble as much as they can. In fact, from 1979 to 1985 they got in trouble at least 146 times - on TV that's 146 episodes - and that's the kind of fact you better prepare yourself for when it comes to this quiz. Can you remember Uncle Jesse's call name on the CB? Or, what Boss Hogg ate for breakfast every morning? Here's a hint - it was gross!

All that moonshine the Duke boys dabbled in might lead a person to drink if you watch "Dukes of Hazzard" too long. If only you could remember the name of the bar that Daisy worked at...

Now it's time to slide across the hood of the General Lee and dive into the driver's side window. Slip her into gear and take off down a curvy gravel road, because the law is fast on your tail. But be careful, there's shine in the back of the General and you've got a stop down the road to answer some of the hardest questions you'll find about the Duke boys and a home they like to call Hazzard.
