Mayberry Days 2021 has come and gone but the memories made are still with me.
I’m going to review some of the events that happened during Mayberry Days in an attempt to let you know what happens during the Mayberry Days weekend in Mt. Airy, NC. The video version of the show has photos of the things I’m talking about but I don’t think you’ll feel left out if you just listen to the audio version.
I always wonder about doing these reviews/reports on Mayberry Days but I had more than one person tell me during Mayberry Days that they listened to the podcast to figure out which events they wanted to be sure not to miss. They had gone back to old episodes to do research on events. I hope I didn’t lead anyone astray.
We have a few trivia questions to play and then on to what I’m sure you’re waiting for.

Let’s do a quick run down of all the fun you can have during Mayberry Days 2021. I know you’re not going to be able to remember all these things but if you head over to MayberryDays.com you will find the the schedule, ticket information, special guest information and anything else you’d like to know about this amazing event.
Mayberry Days has evolved over the years to help keep the Mayberry spirit alive. With both youth and adult competitions, Mayberry trivia contests are one of the most popular traditions. Some of the questions will challenge even the sharpest trivia experts, so don’t feel bad if you don’t know most of the answers. Or if you just want to watch, that’s always fun, too.

We’re continuing to celebrate the 60 years of The Andy Griffith Show following the October 3rd anniversary. This week we’re going to talk about Nashville, TN and it’s contribution to keeping Mayberry alive for all these years.
As part of that, we have to talk about the fellow who has kept The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club healthy and moving forward since the fall of 1979 when TAGSRWC was established, Jim Clark. As “Presiding Goober Emeritus”, that ’emeritus’ part of his title had slipped by my notice until not too long ago, Jim has had a hand in pretty much every Mayberry endeavor since that humble beginning of TAGSRWC.
This article by Joe Rogers (founder of the “Otis Campbell” chapter) ran in “The Nashville Ledge” on September 18, 2020.

What great memories I have from Mayberry Days 2020. It was the 31st Mayberry Days held on the 30th anniversary of the first Mayberry Days and just a week before the 60th Anniversary of The Andy Griffith Show. While the attendance for 2020 was not what it normally is because of the Covid-19 issues, it was a welcome time of normalcy in what has been an unusual year. In this episode we’ll work through the Qualifying Round questions and answers of the 2020 World Championship of Mayberry Trivia.
The qualifying round is just to qualify for the Finals of Mayberry trivia. If you qualify, you end up facing past Mayberry Days Trivia champions and other qualifiers from this round and the “kids” trivia winners.
The Grand Champion of Mayberry Trivia for 2020 was, for the 5th time in a row, Jim Sherrill. Jim has been the champion in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and now in 2020. He deserves a lot of credit for his education and the speed of his buzzer finger. We’ll go though the questions from the finals in a future episode.
This episode also marks the start of year 12 +1 of Two Chairs….I’m just being cautious.

Here we are at our 600th episode of Two Chairs No Waiting. This BIG event is happening right after a month of filming the Mayberry Man movie & Mayberry Days 2020 and just days before the October 3rd celebration of the 60th Anniversary of the premier of The Andy Griffith Show! What a wonderful time to be a fan of Mayberry!
This episode we celebrate the podcast just a little then move on to reporting a bit about the Mayberry Man movie filming experience (more to come latter on that) then we have a report from Lydia…err…Ol’ Barney…about this years Mayberry Days experience.
I have had a wonderful several weeks as a fan of The Andy Griffith Show and you’ll be hearing more about it as time goes on.
As a bonus, we have an original parody song for you to enjoy at the end of the episode instead of our usual “This Week in Mayberry History” report. I thought it was fitting to give Randy Turner time off for the entire month of September so he’ll be well rested heading into the end of the year.

We had some really great memories from Mayberry Days 2019, the 30th Mayberry Days, on last weeks podcast but there is so much that goes on during the event we’ll be talking about it off and one for months. This episode we’ll visit the Qualifying Round of the 2019 World Championship of Mayberry Trivia.
This round of the trivia is just to qualify for the Finals of Mayberry trivia. If you qualify, you end up facing past Mayberry Days Trivia champions and other qualifiers from this round and the “kids” trivia winner.
The Grand Champion of Mayberry Trivia for 2019 was Jim Sherrill. Jim is a 4 time repeat champion (2016, 2017, 2018, & 2019) and deserves a lot of credit for his education. 2nd place went to Pat Bullins and 3rd to Dennis Beal who are both past champions and deserve a shot out as well.

Mayberry Days 2019 has come and gone but the memories will never fade. What an amazing several days spend in Mount Airy, NC which becomes Mayberry for the span of Mayberry Days. Fans walking the street are able to meet characters straight out of Mayberry to have photos taken, share lines from the show, a laugh and a smile.
We’ll hear reports from several who attended this years event through voice messages and written remembrances of the weekend that was. I hope you get just an inkling of the joy that Mayberry Days brings to my heart and are inspired to attend in the future.
