South of the Border is just over the North Carolina border in South Carolina. I used to go there as a kid with my dad to buy fireworks. It is a huge roadside attraction, but really weird. Some of the buildings are closed down now. Mostly they sell their branded products. Shot glasses, snow globes, t-shirts etc. At one time it was big news, now its almost a ghost town. The carnival is barely open. Still one of my favorite places!!! Check it out:
