Those island people off the Georgia and South Carolina coasts are a fascinating story.
I think Jon Voight did one of his early movies about time teaching on one of the Islands. Maybe it was based on one of Pay Conroy's books.
I'm just guessing that Allen's life experience is very, very different from that of most athletes from Georgia. Probably had similarities to the culture of the Caribbeans. Maybe why he felt more drawn to South Florida than many other Georgia athletes.
Bahamians and the Gee-Chee or the folks from where he is from are closely related same people. Listen to how people from Charleston,Sc speak and go to the Bahamas its basically the same accent...same with Savannah and where he is from
