We have different events that happen in our town but one of the biggest would have to be when everyone gets together for bass fishing. There is an actual tournament where there are some pretty amazing prices. In the beginning the prices were more of t-shirts and key rings. Everyone still tried hard to win them because that meant they were the best. The prizes were more of a bragging rights thing then the actual prizes. The prizes have changed in caliber a bit since the event first started and it has caught the attention of the neighboring towns. Now the prizes have worked up to be first prize is a fishing boat! I would say the contest has truly become a popular event around here. It seems each of the neighboring towns now want to have a tournament as our town does because it draws such a big revenue for the town. We knew when we moved out of the city that the things that drew people in would change and they have. We went to a cow show last week and this week we are going to see who takes the prize in the bass fishing tournament. The funny part is we would not have it any other way. We do sometimes drive into the city for some time at the theater and sporting events but we do not miss the hustle and bustle.
