I remember seeing the Button King as a child. He came to my school in his button covered hearse. My best friend loved it. I think I thought it was creepy. He is quite the legend around Bishopville....as you may have guessed there is little to do there and not much that is "legend worthy." Someone can cover some things in buttons and make a name for himself. Anyway, while I was visiting my mom last weekend I passed the road that leads to the Button Museum and it triggered these memories. I discovered that the Button King actually has an entire website. It is a must see.
This is just one of the many perks to growing up in a small town. There is no end to the exciting things you can see.
