You know, it’s actually a lot more complicated than I thought originally. It is a satire account, and it isn’t a “real” place, but apparently a lot of the photos originate from a truck stop in Tennessee. There’s a whole internet saga around finding the actual location. Most of the photos they post are digitally manipulated in some way, including alleged AI face superimposition, but they play the satire so straight that it’s impossible to know to what extent. You may be right that it’s not whole-cloth AI generated, but it also isn’t a photo of a kid with a tub full of orange soda.
…Peyton is just a common name in Tennessee. Maybe Peyton Manning helped that trend with his success as a quarterback, but there are a lot of kids with that name in Tennessee.

I mean, there’s some pretty big clues in the photo and name (Peyton meaning Manning in TN)

If there’s someone younger than thirty named Peyton in Tennessee they’re named after Manning, even the girls.
Like the dispenser to the left of the soda is dispenser for beer, sure looks like a Busch logo
