VIDEO extended promo for Cajun Pawn Stars premiere

Jimmie DeRamus Cajun Pawn Stars

I’m counting down the days to the premiere of The History Channel’s Pawn Stars southern spin-off Cajun Pawn Stars. If you haven’t had the opportunity to meet the show’s star, Jimmie “Big Daddy” DeRamus, yet I encourage you to do so in our profile here.

The fine folks with the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame have been kind enough to provide a video of the first extended promo for the show. In the following clip you get to see Jimmie and his family staff do two things you don’t see every day. First they head off site to see about a request a man has to pawn his goats. Yes, I said goats and Jimmie is open to anything if it’s legal and got value.

The second thing, which I wrote about previously, is the half-a-million dollar offer Jimmie makes for some ultra-rare $5,000 and $10,000 U.S. bank notes. Yep, I said $500,000 for some old money. Just to test you, who appears on the face of the $10,000 bill? Yeah, I had no idea either but forget all these songs about Benjamins, because Frankliny it’s all about dem Salmons for Jimmie D.!

That would be Salmon P. Chase on the $10,000 bill while Mr. James Madison rocks out on the $5,000 bill.

Salmon P. Chase 10,000 bill:

Cajun Pawn Stars airs Sundays at 10/9c on The History Channel.

There is no official page for it yet on their website and it’s not even listed as one of the network’s programs, even though it has a Jan. 8 premiere date. In spite of their black-ops cover up I’ve got the first official promo clip and another interview with the show’s soon-to-be star, Jimmie DeRamus.

Tammie DeRamus may be the daughter of Silver Pawn’s Jimmie “Big Daddy” DeRamus but the Cajun Pawn Star brunette knows just about as much in regards to the business and could sell sawdust to a lumber mill. I thought I’d do a litttle profile on the woman who is a pawn store lifer and runs the day to day operations of Silver Dollar Pawn and Jewelry featured on The History Channel’s Cajun Pawn Stars.
