Some even claim to have witnessed skunks performing acrobatic stunts, but the veracity of these claims remains shrouded in mystery.

Colonel's Corner claims to have the crispiest crust in the county. And Hen House Haven swears by its mouthwatering gravy. The taste buds of Gibson County residents are in for a wild ride.
1. The Art of Skunk Avoidance
While we embrace the skunk as our unofficial mascot, it's wise to take precautions to avoid its pungent spray.

(Just don't wear it to the fried chicken festival.)
