Duck Dynasty‘s charismatic Silas “Uncle Si” Robertson has become one of reality television’s greatest gurus with a seemingly endless supply of meme-worthy witticisms and elaborate tales, the latter of which Si proudly boasts are 95% truthful. On Saturday Uncle Si was in attendance at the Texas Crawfish and Music Festival where he shared some of his infamous stories and answered questions for fans lucky enough to be in attendance, including his take on gun control!

A&E’s smash hit Duck Dynasty wraps up its third season this week with a one-hour finale special… from Hawaii! Officially titled “Aloha, Robertsons!” the episode features the entire Robertson family as they become what amounts to ducks out of in water — the Ocean to be more sPacific Keep reading for preview clips and lots of photos of the DD fam being aohappy, happy, happy, including Uncle Si’s memorable trip down a waterslide and his return to surfing, which is something he says he excelled at when in Vietnam.

Duck Dynasty star Willie Robertson has always been a friend to country music — literally. Sangers Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan are regulars on Willie’s Outdoor Channel series Buck Commander, and just last month Willie, Jase and Uncle Si made camo cameos in Darius Rucker’s “Wagon Wheel” music video. Willie can now add another country music video to his resume as he joins singers Lee Brice and Colt Ford in Tyler Farr’s new video for “Redneck Crazy!”

Willie Robertson stated once on an episode of Duck Dynasty that a school reunion was a great way to show off how smoking hot his wife is. Well, the same can be said for the Academy of Country Music Awards as Willie and little brother Jep were accompanied by their lovely better-halves, Korie and Jessica Robertson. See HI-RES photos of the duck queens, an after-show interview as well as a candid pic of the girls with a famous singing friend. As a bonus, find out which famous attendee was too starstruck to approach the Robertsons.

While we all know that Duck Dynasty star Si Robertson is a jack of all trades, Jack, many may not be aware that he’s also a devoted husband to wife Christine. See two great photos, one rather recent and one vintage of Uncle Si with his lovely (has to be) better half!

Hey, if A&E wants another season of the most popular reality show on cable they best fork over the bucks for more duck, Jack! It’s being reported that the bearded stars of the smash hit Duck Dynasty are in negotiations for a serious pay upgrade and that this salary standoff is holding up a 4th season renewal. Find out how much the Robertsons are looking to make and why we believe they’ll get just that with all parties involved ending up happy, happy, happy.

Just like millions (and millions and millions and millions…) of others who tune in each week to watch Duck Dynasty on A&E, I’ve become smitten with show patriarch Phil Robertson. At 66 years old Phil has seemingly lived the lives of three or four men — and the exciting lives of three or four men at that! The latest entry we can add to this All-American Renaissance man’s resume? How about baseball and track and field star! Or should I say quack and field?

There’s a reason that A&E’s Duck Dynasty is the most popular reality show on cable after premiering less than a year ago — the men and women on the show are not only authentic, intelligent, loving, and sincere good ol’ boys and girls who run a multi-million (billion?) dollar business out of Monroe, Louisianna, they are also just plain interesting and damned entertaining. And perhaps none are more interesting or more damned entertaining than Robertson family patriarch Phil Robertson, who will be sharing his AMAZING life story in an autobiography titled Happy, Happy, Happy: My Life and Legacy as the Duck Commander due out May 7.

If you’re a Duck Dynasty fan then you’re probably aware of Phil Robertson’s prowess on the gridiron as quarterback of the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs in the late 1960s, but did you know that Phil’s little brother Si was no stranger to handling the pigskin? That’s right! Si Robertson followed in his big brother’s cleatsteps at North Caddo High School in Vivian, Louisiana where he wore the same #10 and was listed as an “end.” Keep reading to see a fresh-faced little Si decked out in pads as well as his freshman and junior yearbook photos!

The Harlem Shake craze has about played out, and I’m not sorry to see it go. Duck Dynasty jumped on the train right as it left town, though, and I’m glad they did. Willie’s pretty good as usual, and the puppet is a nice touch, but Jase steals the scene for sure.
