On May 31, 1926, the Sesqui-Centennial opened in the remote swamps of the southern tip of South Philadelphia. Mayor W. Freeland Kendrick welcomed the world, including 150,000 of his fellow Shriners, to an unfinished fair of shabbily built, mostly empty structures set in a sea of mud. The disgusted Shriners traveled home and told their friends and neighbors not to bother with "Kendrick's Karnival."
