One time, I was driving with a friend from St. Louis to Nashville, and both our phones ran out of battery. We got a little lost and ended up driving through Cairo, Illinois. That whole town should not exist. It was surreal; like driving through a Scooby-Doo ghost town.

The buildings were faded and falling apart, and people were just haplessly milling about the streets like zombies. Freaky.
