The Famous
Jamboree Cowbell |
|
Long before cell phones and access to public
telephones, farmers who would travel from miles
around to attend the live radio broadcast and
stage show of The
Wheeling Jamboree, would bring cow-bells from
their farms. When they would ring-out from the
audience, loved-ones back home could distinguish
the sound. This would let everyone know they made it to
the Jamboree safely! |
