Van Wert Rib Fest 2013

Although Friday night was a rainout, Saturday’s beautiful weather made for a successful Van Wert Rib Fest event, as thousands turned out to eat ribs and other comestibles (above), watch a number of events, including Wiffleball and cornhole tournaments, and listen to some great entertainment from bands such as the Earthquakers (below) from Erie, Pa.
