And while most did not even know the meaning behind it, they yelled it with pride in spite of Whitesburg yelling the same thing as a means of taunting. But the most interesting thing is most of the kids yelling it from Neon or Whitesburg never knew its real meaning.  Many think they do explaining how many rats that Neon houses.  But lets face it, if ever a city in this county was going to count their rats, I think that Sewer City, AKA Whitesburg, would have us all beat.  And even if that was the case why ascribe it to the high school?  So just what is the real story behind this cheer? The real story has very little if anything to do with Rats (as in the animal). You might be surprised to learn that several cities across the country have sections in them referred to as “Rat Row” Neon isn’t the only place with a Rat Row. The term is often applied to a section of disreputable houses or businesses.  And it is no different in this case. In the 1920’s and 30’s the town of Neon had a section of it which featured bars and prostitution. The men could find such entertainment, if they wished, after putting in long hours in the coal mines in Fleming or Hemphill, or after working on the train.  This area was where the Neon Volunteer Fire Department sits now. After interviewing many older people who can remember Rat Row, by all accounts it was a rough section of the town. What happened to Rat Row? A man named Pud Draughn was elected Mayor of the town of Neon sometime in the late 1940’s, he wished to put an end to the rough areas and clean up the town. To do so he hired Adolph Phillips as police officer with the mission of cleaning up the town. In no time he had accomplished what he had set out to do and the town was better behaved afterwards.     In next months article:   What do the American Civil War, the Empire State Building, and the town of Fleming-Neon all have in common?
