    I found this interesting, over on Garage journal

    Seems to start in Alabama and end in Michigan someplace. Anyone been to it?

    My wife grew up near the Kentucky part of rt 127. It is that awesome.

    I stumbled across it a few years ago - had never heard of it growing up near 127 in KY

    That sounds scary, around here when they have the 20 mile yard sale along Rt.11 they have to post cops on it all day to respond to all the wrecks.

    I heard about this a few years ago. It made the Memphis newpaper one year, tho I've never been to it, I've always wondered if there was much in the way of car stuff to be seen/found.

    About this same weekend, there were always 2 or 3 subdivisions in the outskirts of Memphis that had yard sales. Not a couple of hundred miles long, but still, several dozen families at a time....and THAT was a traffic nightmare.

    I've driven through it a couple times by accident. One guy had a complete airplane fuselage for sale.
