South of the Border

South of the Border lies along Interstate 95 at the South Carolina–North Carolina line, amid the level, pine-covered terrain of the Atlantic Coastal Plain. Founded by Alan Schafer in 1950, the long-running roadside complex grew from a beer depot into a conspicuous stop for interstate travellers. Its Pedro mascot, dense collection of billboards and towering sombrero-shaped observation tower have made it an unmistakable feature of this stretch of highway. Restaurants, souvenir shops and family amusements reflect the American tradition of road-trip attractions built to break up a long drive.
