i hated to see that place go.a lot of people had some great times there not only during the day but at night as well. It was historical in my eyes and should of been protected.but instead the money hungry had to have more more more.mostly for that god awe-full new courthouse. hell we cant even get a grocery store but we can have a new courthouse.yeah ok sorry had to rant a little been gone for a while came back and everything has changed

Hay one thing is that all country people know how to do is raise some sort of cattle, pigs, sheep, goats or horses and if a stockyard pr some sort of livestock barn or slaughter house close your community is affected forever and there not hillbillys

Great video. Would have made a good 90 minute documentary. It's sad to see our history and culture be torn down. As for you trainedintheartofhat. These hillbillys where here first so if you don't like it, get your city slicken ass out of farm country. DIP SHIT!!! LOL

That was one of my favorite places in the world there in Lancaster. We used to take all our cattle there before they closed it now we got to the new stockyards in Stanford.
