Three reality TV stars brought out the crowds Sunday on the final day of the Strawberry Festival.
Lizard Lick Towing, an actual towing company in North Carolina with a semi-reality show on truTV, stole the show. Stars Ronnie Shirley, Amy Shirley and Bobbie Brantley came out Sunday to chat with fans and sign autographs.
"When we started, we were just excited, as just us three, to have the opportunity to be on TV,” Brantley said, “because we’re just plain ol’ country folk and being on TV is, like, way cool.”
The festival wrapped up after nearly two weeks of festivities, entertainment and, of course, all the good food.
Organizers said this was a blockbuster year for entertainment sales.
"I mean, it's been the best year. So, that brings about 200,000 people in over the 11 days just for the concerts," Strawberry Festival general manager Paul Davis said. "So, it's been fantastic.
The Band Perry, Luke Bryan, Hank Williams Jr., and Reba (McEntire) were some of the headliners at the Festival. Reba's concert alone sold thousands of tickets in just the first few hours they were available. Luke Bryan also sold out.
