WENT TO SOUTH OF THE BORDER

SOB1

On our last tour we stopped at Pedro's South of the Border which is the best tourist trap ever. It is just south of the North Carolina/South Carolina border. There are many things to do there including (but not limited to) shopping for fireworks and assorted cheap crap.

If you've driven past Pedro's on Route 95 you know that there are billboards advertising South of the Border at least every mile, if not more, for 60 miles in either direction. Most billboards have cute pictures of Pedro saying funny things:

Top 10 SOB Billboards:

10. Sometheeeng Deeeferent!!!!
9. Keep Yelling Kids! They'll Stop!
8. Pedro's Weather Report: Chili Today, Hot Tamale
7. True Grits
6. Too Moch Tequila!
5. You Never Sausage a Place! You're always a Weiner at Pedro's!
4. Give Pedro the Business
3. Go Back! You missed it!
2. I only wrote down 8.
1. see above.


Once we got there, we bought some cheap crap (Auto Bingo) and James and I bravely ate lunch there - Chili Dogs and Icehouse. Yum.
