I dropped this one off in Platte City, MO.
1) Like Atlanta, Georgia, Platte City, Missouri was burned to the ground during the Civil War in 1861.
2) The Platte County Fair is the oldest continuously operated county fair west of the Mississippi River since 1863.
3) And in 1933, Platte County were involved in a shoot-out with the infamous crime duo Bonnie & Clyde.
