Ever take a gander at Ada, Ohio videos on YouTube? You might describe the collection of short clips as crazy, eclectic, or down right homey.
Some show historical pictures of people and places. Maybe you'd enjoy watching a three-minute vid of a train blowing through Ada. There are plenty of videos of Wilson's.

Is their play in Ada any different than anywhere else?
