Tales From The Quirky South
The South has always had a flair for the unexpected—charming, curious, and sometimes downright wild. At The Southern Sun, we shine a light on the quirky side of the region, from harmless oddities to stories that make you scratch your head in disbelief.
We don’t just chase the odd and funny—we cover the full spectrum. Some of the South’s quirks are sweet and strange. Others are troubling or even dangerous. Either way, we believe they’re are stories worth shining a light on. This is a place where weird news and real talk meet.
