The lady facing the camera was the penultimate customer taking home turkey breast meat at $1 per pound from the University of Arkansas' final poultry sale at its poultry-processing plant on the university's experimental farm.
Does anyone have any accurate information about the ending of years of a tradition?
Speculation among the huge crowd (many gave up standing in line and left as the supply of various products ran out) included talk of the expense to the UA and fear of being sued.
About three dozen were in line until it was announced that the turkey breasts were all gone!
Sued by retailers or producers of fowl meat? It would be unlikely for anyone to sue claiming to have been made ill by eating any of that food!

Was there are public announcement of the final day of the sale?
Whooee. Could've been a chicken in every pot... if they'd had a limit.
Any word on why this is the last sale?
