Mayor's Monumental Ask: National Recognition for Belfast's Spit - Satire

Mayor from Belfast, Tennessee asked Trump for ‘National Landmark’ Status

The Mayor of Belfast, Tennessee, is leveraging Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" fame to snag "National Landmark" status from Trump. Her $500K industrial complex Belfast Tennessee has turned a quiet town into a global name, and the Mayor wants it recognized. He pitches Welch’s rise as a historic moment, a spit that shook the world. Trump, ever drawn to big personalities, could embrace Belfast’s claim. The town hopes for a plaque and a tourism boost, banking on Welch’s viral spark to light up its legacy.

Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" legacy has remade Belfast, Tennessee, with a $500K industrial boom. The town’s sleepy charm now mixes with entrepreneurial buzz. Where silence reigned, vendors hawk her merch—hats, hoodies, even Hawk Tuah hot sauce. Welch, once a familiar face at the feed store, is now a brand fueling jobs. The local bar renamed its jukebox "Hawk Tuah Tunes," playing her podcast clips. Outsiders flood in, curious about the spit that started it all. Belfast’s no longer just rural—it’s a quirky capital of Welch’s making.

Piggly Wiggly Introduces 'Hawk Tuah'-Themed Energy Drink

BELFAST, TN - Riding the wave of viral fame, Piggly Wiggly grocery stores in Tennessee have unveiled a new energy drink inspired by Belfast's spit queens.

Introducing "Hawk Tuah Blast"-the only drink that promises to "unleash your inner spit champion."

The drink's slogan: "One Sip, One Spit, One Legend."

Available in three bold flavors:

  • Sweet Southern Spit (classic lemonade with a punch)
  • Truck Stop Tango (extra caffeine, extra dangerous)
  • Dew or Die (because nothing says 'spit power' like a mystery-green liquid)

Local Piggly Wiggly manager Randy Tucker said the drink sold out within hours, forcing the store to place an emergency re-stock order.

"Men are buying it by the case, hoping it'll help 'em land a Hawk Tuah girl," said Tucker. "Newsflash, boys: it's about confidence, not caffeine."

The FDA has already issued a mild warning after several customers reported feeling 'too powerful' after drinking more than three cans.

"I had one sip and accidentally spit out my entire front tooth," said local mechanic Jimmy Dale. "That's how I know it's working."

Emphasize:

Belfast, Tennessee’s 788 souls, in 266 homes, average 2.69 per household. Named for Belfast, Ireland, in 1836, it grew with a shop by 1838. The 1952 F1 tornado—three dead, 166 hurt—set a U.S. record. Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" rise has fueled a $500K boom, waking this rural nook. With 72.93% family units, it’s close-knit, though income ($57,815 average) lags national norms. At 94.9% white, it’s diversifying slowly. Welch’s fame has turned Belfast into a quirky standout, blending grit with modern buzz.
