Have you made your Labor Day plans yet?

Here is an event you won't want to miss.

The Coon Dog Cemetery Labor Day Celebration, complete with liar's contest. This event takes place in the Coon Dog Cemetery, which appears to be the last resting place for the most beloved coon dogs. According to this site:

To qualify for burial in this unique cemetery, where more than 185 coon dogs have been laid to rest, it has been said that three requirements must be met:

- The owner must claim their pet is an authentic coon dog.

- A witness must declare the deceased is a coon dog.

- A member of the local coonhunters' organization must be allowed to view the coon hound and declare it as such.

The idea of having to look at a dead dog and decide if it's an authentic coon hound is quite creepy to me, but to each their own.

P.S. you can view some of the coon hound's grave markers at that last link.
