It was a first at the Jackson Fairgrounds on Saturday, but instead of hot dogs and funnel cakes, there were cigars and beer. Dozens went out for the first annual Tennessee's Cigar and Brew festival.
 
Cigar and beer connoisseurs could enjoy hand crafted beers and premium handmade cigars. There was even a live cigar roller on hand.
 
Part of the proceeds from the event will go to benefit the Jackson Madison County Humane Society.
