Welcome to The Wiregrass, Where Corruption Is Rampant, Contradictions Abound, and Cynicism Reigns Supreme
The Wiregrass sits at the southernmost tip of the Bible Belt, beginning just south of Augusta, Georgia, and running west to Troy, Alabama, and south into the Florida Panhandle, with peanut crops and pine tree groves stretching as far as the eye can see.
