Synopsis
Ol’ Man Amos doesn’t get along with his neighbors, the Brown
Family, “thieving, welfare collection vagrants” is what he generally calls
them, and he wants them to move off their land.
Despite
the dispute, the Browns won’t leave their land that easily. But stolen
mail and unpaid bills are making matters worse! To make money fast the
Browns come up with a plan to win a contest for “Watermelon Juice Afro
Sheen,” awarding $10,000 to whoever can find the juiciest, sweetest
watermelon in the country.
And wouldn’t you know it, who
has the biggest watermelons? This hilarious adventure follows the seedy
swindle and will keep you laughing out loud.
