Cover art for Greta lyrics by Widespread Panic

This is a true story: Greta hippie-looking, kinda groovy bartender in Athens, waaaaay back in the day. I think Jojo used to date her. She had an episode where an intruder tried to break into her house one night...she was alone and only had her dog to protect her. Pissed off (In a fighting mood) at the intruder (who attempted to climb in through her bedroom window after "pawing" at the front door and finding it locked), she sicked her dog on him. The dog mauled the intruder's face, leaving him hospitalized. Greta was ticketed and got into trouble for the incident by her landlord. Her gun was confiscated after the incident.
