Opossum ping!
Possum,,,,Natures speed bump.
Looks fun to me (maybe I need to get out more?). The people do look like they are having a great time. If I was there, I would show up.
The Brasstown Bald area of NC is ... unique, lol. There are some fairly well-educated people living there, so it has to be mostly tongue in cheek.
The “PossumTron” is hilarious. The New Year’s Queens are, shall we say, men in wigs. It’s innocent fun like an old country school “Womanless Wedding” fundraiser, though. Unlike the olive dropping on the swizzle stick in the giant martini glass filled with synchronized swimmers. You can probably guess where that one is or was, lol.
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: To prove to the opossums it could be done!

Although if I had continued reading, I would have seen the 'possum drop mentioned...
I wish I could go.
