Neshoba County Fair

The Neshoba County Fair is an annual fair that happens in Philadelphia, MS. It's like no other fair I've ever been to. There are fair rides, but there is also horse racing, musical acts, and political speeches (President Reagan kicked off his Presidential Campaign there). But the coolest thing (in my opinion) are the cabins. Families lease land from the Neshoba County Fair Association and build their own cabins. These cabins are awesome and allow people to basically live at the fair for the week it runs. One of the partners at Ben's firm has a cabin and we were thankful to be invited to sit on the porch of their cabin with them for a while. We feel like we are official Mississippians now.
