Fair breaks attendance record with counterfeit ticket boost
COURTLAND – The rain held off for the first time in years and the Franklin/Southampton County Fair crushed their previous “attendance record” with an astounding turnout at Friday night’s Florida-Georgia Line concert. An accurate attendance count has proved to be impossible however, as fair officials only have on record the number of legitimate tickets sold because there were no turnstiles, clickers, or abaci present at the gates.
