💨 Abstract

The Neshoba County Fair in Philadelphia, Mississippi, is an annual event known as the "giant house party," where hundreds of families gather in colorful cabins for eight days. Attendees like Mike Hardy, who inherited his cabin, see it as a crucial family reunion. The fair includes shared meals, horse-race watching, and carnival rides. Sid Salter, another long-time attendee, emphasizes the fair's communal spirit and constant traditions.
