Atheists leverage themselves a discount for proof of their "non-belief" during "God & Country Day" at the Wilson County Fair and piss off some evangelical pastors in the process. I'd like to see this blow up into civil unrest between equal numbers of both devout and skeptics on Sunday, but my guess is that the atheists were probably spoiling more for a showdown with Wilson County officials and they probably won't show up in the same numbers as if they had been denied the discount.
Now if the Quakers and Mennonites and some disestablishment Baptists could just motivate Wilson County to keep God & Country separate and distinct rather than encouraging idolatry, then we'd have some potential for evangelical fireworks that I would pay the full entrance fee to watch.
