Do you believe in ghosts? That’s the question that kicks off one of the most chilling and entertaining episodes of The Bama Brown Experience yet. In this episode, Bama Brown and Puma dive headfirst into the paranormal, sharing eerie tales from some of the most haunted places in America—including San Antonio’s infamous railroad crossing, the Baker Hotel in Mineral Wells, and the ghostly halls of the RMS Queen Mary. From cold spots and mysterious handprints to a glowing cross above a Confederate graveyard, Bama recounts a personal ghost sighting that will leave you questioning what’s real.
But it’s not all spooky—there’s plenty of humor too. The show opens with a hilarious “Bonehead of the Week” featuring Brianna Humes, who trashed a Little Caesars over a $1 dipping sauce and now faces a $10,000 bill. The contrast between absurdity and the supernatural makes this episode a rollercoaster of laughs and goosebumps. Puma, co-host of The Sports Cave, brings his skeptical yet curious take on ghost stories, conspiracy theories, and haunted legends. His experience sneaking into the Baker Hotel adds a layer of authenticity and intrigue to the discussion.
Whether you're a believer or a skeptic, this episode will make you think twice the next time you pass a dark hallway or hear a whisper in the wind. Tune In Now!

Speaker 2 (00:17):
We are back live on YouTube Tuesdays and Thursdays, this
being a Tuesday, it's it's always a good reminder when
I talk to you to keep my own schedule in order,
as I remember what days, uh I need, I need
to be uh camera ready.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
This show's helpful for you. After all.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Yesterday it was yesterday I felt like I was talking
to Dave Ramsey about my four oh one K and
today I'm being reminded I need to take a shower
because I'm gonna be on camera tonight. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
I don't know Dave Ramsey, but me tell you, but
I think he's had some pretty good advice.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
You know. I think like most people, it's there's some good,
some bad, uh. But yeah, anywhere you get your podcasts,
just so for the Sports Cave with Biggest Puma, if
you just need the audio version, if you want to
see what I look like cleaned up tonight, over on
YouTube eight o'clock down Beat at Sports Cave Live Handsome Devil.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
I'll tell you, so, let's let's do uh. Let's do
a bonehead and then we'll go into UH and he
will go into UH. I got a cool thing for you.
This is pretty awesome. I think you'll dig this. Uh.
But this is Brianna Hume's. Brianna's in Louisville, Kentucky. Brianna
they did not give her a h free extra cup
of dipping sauce there at the Little Caesars in Louisville,
(01:36):
and she went, hey, that's that's fine, you don't have to.
I'm you don't have to. I'll pay for it. How
much is it? It's a dollar? A dollar I am
not paying. And she ends up trashing the Little Caesars
over a dollar cup of dipping sauce. She went to jail.
(01:57):
She has to possibly. It looks like it could run
as much as ten thousand dollars to get the Little
Caesars redone. So that was my next question of how
much is she Alanie guess what shocking? She already had
a record, so now she's now she's going to get
some real time and so.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Many red flags at the beginning of that story Louisville, Kentucky,
Extra dipping Sauce, Little Caesars.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I immediately a dollar. You knew that was you knew
it was a storm of bruin as you heard. All right,
are you ready for this? Put my save this just
for you. The most haunted spots in the United States,
according to like this, My surveys are always off of
some official looking thing. But this is this is what
they said. And I'm going to start with number ten,
(02:48):
San Antonio's Railroad crossing with the kids. Have you done that?
Have you gone over there?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
And of course, I mean, I well, let me start
by asking you do you do you believe in ghosts
or yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
All one time I saw something ill And when we
get done, I'll explain what I saw.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
So I don't I don't know if I necessarily believe
them or believe in them, but I love the idea
that they might actually exist. Kind of like it's kind
of like I am with conspiracy theories, Like there's not
a whole lot, there's not many that I actually one
hundred percent believe, but I love to hear about them.
I love to talk about them. I love to throw
(03:27):
around the idea that it might be true. So yeah,
I mean when we moved to San Antonio, I meet
there's so many haunted spots over here, and we immediately
scouted them all out.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
If you if you hadn't heard the railroad cross and
a bus got hit, some children were killed. Tragedy. But
they say, if you you pull your car up, put
it in neutral, or you can even shut it off
in neutral, and some little hands will get on your
rear bumper and push your car uphill off of the
railroad tracks. I watched a news guy I do it
(03:59):
one time at Halloween, and it really did. And he
poured the taco powder on the bumper and there was
handprints on it on the news. I saw it on me.
Look it up, you can google it. So I don't know,
but I saw it. I don't know. I mean, he
could have probably put Vassilan where the handprints. Could you know?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
There's spectually if you're I mean, trust the media at
your own peril. The closest thing in Texas that I
actually would say I believe that I saw or experienced something.
There's that Baker Hotel in Mineral Wells and before they
(04:41):
did the whole remodel and everything. Whenever I was going
to school at Tarleton State there in Stephenville, we drove
from Stephenville to Mineral Wells in the middle of the
night one night and snuck in through the basement and
then to the very top floor of that thing. And
there was one one floor be eighty degrees, the floor
(05:02):
above it would be fifty degrees, and then.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
The floor exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
That was like I never saw anything, but it was like,
come on, it's it's Texas in the middle of the summer.
That's something something's wrong there.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Now, these other these none of the other ones made
the Austin's you know, the hotel in Austin there didn't
make it that the were the two women, two women
both committed suicide from the same room. And like hundreds
of people have seen the ghost of the woman with
their packages at the Driscoll, but it wasn't on the list,
all right. Number nine was the And I'll just jump
(05:35):
on through some of these. The pine barrens in New
Jersey where the Jersey Devil, oh, yeah, you know, pretty famous.
You can google all these and then you look them up.
But we'll hit on some of here. Uh, that Uh,
the Lava Mansion there in New Orleans. You know, there's
supposedly that thing the trees. You know, it's supposed to
be a ghost deal. Uh. I didn't know this, and
(05:57):
I was there last year and I'm gonna be there
in a couple of weeks. But the Saint Augustine Lighthouse, Uh,
they say the lighthouse there and I've seen it. I
didn't know what was haunted, but they got ghosts of
all kinds hanging out around it. They say, Saint Augustine,
this oldest city in the US. If you don't ask
anybody from El Paso, they claim they're Pottle.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
The TRANSI I recognized.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
I recognize this lighthouse.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yeah, yeah, it's it's famous, of course. But all right.
Number six was the trans Allegheny Lunatic Asylum. Uh in
West Virginia. All kinds of ghosts, supposedly sightings, uh people
you know, ghost talking about you.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
How bad a insane asylum in West Virginia probably was
when it was operational Like that just sounds.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Like literally yeah, uh, well, we're I just remembered it.
The Ed Gaen story, Oh, we just finished it. It's
a it's the freakiest ship you ever seen. I mean
this guy, now there's some they took some liberty, and
I don't mind telling you right now he did. He
(07:04):
did not rat out uh what's his name, the Florida Killer.
You know they made out like the guy that would
get the with the Volkswagen and get the young girls.
And yeah, he did not. He did not finger ted
Bundy that that didn't come out right. But you know
what I'm saying. Uh, they say it in the show,
(07:26):
but I looked it up and it didn't. That's not true.
So I mean they took some liberties there, but a
more interesting show I've never seen. It was crazy. So
the Ed Deane story, it is creepy, it is. I mean,
so look, you know, go and watch that all right.
Number five was the Lizzie Borden House. You know her story. Uh,
they say there's still ghosts walking around. Uh, let's see
(07:48):
the Myrtles. Uh planetarium, and that's in I think Saint Louis.
Maybe handprints on the mirrors they say shows up in
this planet. Planetory. I think that's a fancy word for lunatics. So, uh,
I didn't know this one.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
I think I think that one might be the Myrtle's plantation.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yeah, that's the one. That's the one. Yeah, that's yeah,
because isn't it exactly? Yeah? Yeah, hand prints on the
mirror though what they're known for. Okay. Uh, I couldn't
read my writing here, so or maybe a change. Uh
the r MS Queen Mary, did you know it was haunted?
(08:32):
I had no idea. No long beach. Yeah. They say
there's cold spots in it in whispers, That's.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
What I'm telling you. I don't I didn't see anything,
but definitely have been around some cold spots in that
Baker Hotel.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Let's see, Stanley, Colorado. Uh, I don't know what it was?
Is that the Yeah? Yeah, shining that's what it was.
I wrote this down last week. So that's why I've
been kind of I can't remember some of Yeah, they
the children and the shining, the whole thing. Uh. They
(09:11):
say that's true. It is the movies based on the
true story according to Stephen King, and he's whack. Uh.
And then the East and State East and State Penitentiary
in Philadelphia once again cold spots. Inmates were tortured and
killed and that kind of thing. And so that's when,
(09:32):
all right, you want to hear my story. This is
this is my real life saw a ghost. I was
born in Atlanta, and when I was a little kid
in Atlanta, we had a local gym that we all
went to and had the football field and in the gymnasium,
and we would every year do to spend the night
at the gymnasium in Atlanta. When Sherman burned it to
(09:52):
the ground, killed all the soldiers. Uh, they said there
was a lighted cross which show up on the hill
above this gymnasium, ironically where we would we would stay
heard about it, you know, And then they finally they
lined us up one night when we were there and
they opened the door and everybody got to walk by
(10:14):
and look. And as God is my witness, there was
a gigantic lighted cross up on the hill. Now there
wasn't anything up there, but it was an old Civil
War Confederate cemetery and it was lighted up on the hill.
And I swear I don't know if it's reflection or
how it happened, but it wasn't one of those accidentally
(10:38):
you caught it. It was. It was a definition defined,
perfectly lighted cross above this Confederate graveyard that I saw,
and then we went up there the next morning, next
day looking around up there, and there was nothing, of course,
you know, so uh yeah again, just like you know,
(11:00):
what's going on. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
If I'm a believer yet, but it's hard to argue.
It's hard to argue against first hand accounts like that.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, that's but I saw it. I know it's out there.
They're out there. Man. All right, thank you for listening.
Hopefully you're not scared to death.
