Having grown up in that great southern state (known as the Magnolia state) located between Alabama and Louisiana, I have never heard this term. Granted, I haven't lived there since 1970, but I did visit family there last July. And I also stayed in a Holiday Inn Express (true).

And I, having mostly grown up mostly in the great state of Tennessee...(Memphis most recently) have never heard of this either. And I lived there in the 90's.

But you both do realise, don't you, that slang words can spring up full-grown within a few months. The ninety's were after all four years ago. If Rut heard it from a cousin recently, it's very possible you two just plain missed it. It's also possible that it's a very local word and used in only a few places.
And I suppose it's at least possible that Rut is just yankin' our chain a little!
