2016 Summer Gathering - Mingo Sportsman Club - July 22-24

Those of you who came on Thursday last year may remember, I need a full chicken so I can say the words. Otherwise it's gonna be a shaky 3 days. That Cemetary has some serious history. And it's like, what... 50 yards across the road from the campsite?

I like history, maybe you could give us some insight once we get there. I don't remember seeing a graveyard last year to be honest.

They say he used to gut his enemy with the hook. Joseph McConnell was his name.
