Corhern’s Big Star Grocery was owned & operated by Mr. Hunter Corhern for over 39 years. A great family and a iconic store back in the 70’s. It was on the corner of Russell & Spring Streets. Now apartments. @LocalJoeMSU @StevenCorhern @StarkvilleMS

Growing up in Starkville in the 70’s, all grade school classes got to tour the Bordon Milk Plant each year. It was located where the @StarkvilleGrill is now. @mscollegetown #starkville #EatOut #1970s

In 1973, Oktibbeha County Hospital opened. On a snowy winter day in January 1973, the move was made from the former Felix Long Memorial Hospital to another small facility in Oktibbeha County on land donated by the families of J.T. Garrard and Curby Steadman.

Many of you have ask about Christy’s Hamburgers. Started in 1982 when it was originally called Bulldog and Shake. 10¢ Coke nights, greasy brown bags,etc…. I miss this place.

In the spring of ‘75 @HailStateMBK played their final game at the New Gym. It was their home from 1950-1975. It was later renamed McCarthy Gym after the legendary coach Babe McCarthy. This facility is in the process of being torn down.

Moncrief Park was the place for T-Ball & minor league baseball back in the 70’s. Pictured is the concrete stands. I can still smell the chlorine from the swimming pool, just up the hill. The ball field is now a dog park.

Last day of school was mostly parties & playing. You rarely see these now, with playground safety concerns, but they sure were fun! Do you remember jungle gyms? Were you a playground daredevil who hung upside down
