You know your town's famous when.........



Tonight, on Jeopardy Kids Week, in the category Annual Events, one of the answers were: Hope, Arkansas has this annual festival, and don't get in the way when the seed spitting contest of this picnic food begins. Of course, it is the Watermelon Festival.
Here's this year's winner as the largest melon. This festival is obviously a big deal. No pun intended.
And you thought Hope, Arkansas was only famous as the birthplace of Bill Clinton.
