11 Things We Learned From Tyson Kidd & Nattie On Talk Is Jericho

6. Smith Hart's Culinary Skills

Nattie corroborates the commonly held opinion that Smith was the most unhinged of all the Hart kids. She describes the Hart house as a large house on a hill in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Calgary. One day there was a dead pheasant lying dead in the road, and Smith decided that it was relatively fresh enough to salvage. He goes down and retrieves it, takes it back into the house, and without telling anyone cooked up it with some canned mandarin oranges and tried to turn it into a grand feast. Teddy's mom "accidentally" dropped the meal on the ground where the dogs could get to it, and Smith was furious with her. Tyson then tells a story of a time when they were living in the guest house and he heard a commotion at the door. He opened it to find a not that Smith had left notifying them that his bat was lost. Not a baseball bat, but a dead bat that he'd fonud in the bushes that he put in a bag and froze. Someone had then taken this prized frozen dead bat and Smith was on a mission to recover it. Tyson then recalls that Smith drove around for three weeks one summer with a dead porcupine on the back of a ring truck until Stu finally took it off. No one knows what the story behind his fascination with dead animals.
