Well I'll bite first on this I'm from the south born and raised here all my life. And where I'm from the only people that say crop-pee are the folks from up north. We or at least the folks from around my part of the world say it like its suppose to be said--crap-pieee, not crop-pee.
And further more its peee-cans not pa-cons, just thought I'd help on that one too.:D
Anyway know matter how you say it or where you're from ain't they fun to catch and even better to eat; love them crap-op-pee's..
