* How did Cairo earn the nickname "Syrup City", you ask? Well, because from the early 1900s through the late 1990s, Cairo was home to several companies that produced cane syrup. Of them all, Roddenbery's was the best known. Roddenbery's later became better known for its pickles and the world's largest outdoor brine yard. However, the company was sold to Dean Foods in 1993 and the local factory shut down. Reflecting its "syrup heritage", the Cairo High School football team is named the Syrupmakers.
