Except a lot of times with the air horns and the catcalls etc., you KNOW the family and you KNOW that it isn't the case that there was some hardship that was overcome. It's just rednecks acting out. (At least here in TN - my guess is that carnation has run into similar types in GA.)
ETA: There were people doing this type of carrying on at my daughter's dance recital this past weekend. Trust me when I tell you that no real hardships are overcome by any of these little princesses taking dance class. It's annoying to the audience and distracting to the dancers.
