Clam Shucking Contest a Fun Maine-ah Tradition [VIDEO]

Either way, a tried and true Maine tradition was honored and proved to be a quintessential part of the three-day festival that included everything from great food, i.e. delicious fried clams, lobster rolls and blueberry pies, the annual firemen's muster, lots of live music, fireworks, amusement park rides, and arts and crafts galore!
