Anyone been to State Fair?

[sidebite252]

The wife & I are headed to the Fair in the next few days. Anyone else been this year? Anything interesting we need to check out?

Only thing for sure on my agenda are corn dogs, Cuban rolls, & a cold beer. The rest of the afternoon will be open

Oct. 20th is the last day. I am going to see if I can make it down there this weekend.

We use to go every year. It was always a good time. Never had any problems all the times we went. We'd go on DR pepper Tuesday's.

Favorite things were the bird show and car show.

Check the weather first, I've been blasted with cold and other times rain. Rolls in fast.

We love the fair.
Good food, good music...check out the artists performing and plan your trip accordingly.

It’s also ok to carry concealed with a CHL, just show it to the folks at the metal detectors and you bypass the line and show a cop. Super easy.

Last time I went was in the 70s with my folks. Back then the best attraction was the freakshow.......there was an old black man born with no arms or legs who rolled a cigarette and lit it with a match using only his mouth and chin (no....it was not Prince Randian). Those were the days.........
