August 7, 1979 Around Adair with Ed Waggener The article below first appeared in the August 7, 1979 issue of the Adair County News. Topics included a trip to Fancy Farm, a strategy to avoid the long lines for barbecue, a stop in Beaver Dam, and the reason Poley Simmons got special mention on the "No Trespassing" sign in Falls of Rough. --Pen By Ed Waggener Ran into some local politicians there: at Fancy Farm I was at Fancy Farm over the weekend. But get this clear: I wasn't there for the politics, I was there to check out the western Kentucky barbecue. I have to admit, it just doesn't come up to the barbecue served just south and just west-of-here. Passable, yes. But great? No. Still, a Fancy Farm picnic is big event, regardless of the merits of its barbecue. I did run into a lot of politicians. Linda, Pen, Tom, and I went down to western Kentucky Friday night. When we got to Fancy Farm, it was a lot like old home day: Political figures of all persuasions were there, and I believe there were a dozen and a half or so Adair Countians. My chief barbecue checker, Pen Waggener, and I, used an old trick first employed by his namesake, E.P. Waggener, and purchased the barbecue in bulk. There were long lines at the sandwich stands, and short ones at the by-the-pound stands. We bought two pounds of ribs and a loaf of bread. We didn't figure on getting so much. We took it to the car to eat, but I found that I had lost the key, and the rest of our gang was gone. We were in the parking lot making rib sandwiches on the hood of the car when a very nice couple came by.
