The Fair
I was just curious how many of you live in a place where it is still a big damn deal when the fair comes to town. Do you usually go? Do you ride the rides? Are you a fair food freak?

Lilith,
We go to the Maryland State Fair every year.  It was more of an adventure when the children were with us; we made a big deal of it - took of on Friday, etc.
Good times!

One of the oldest and largest fairs comes to our town each year and we usually end up going all four days. The kids play games and ride rides; Mrs. WI spends most of her time in the craft buildings, and I tend to eat my way from one end to the other.

Yep, the fair is a pretty big deal back here. We have the county fair which isn't as big as it was when I was a kid (or at least it doesn't seem to be to me) and the Iowa State Fair, which is supposedly the largest event in the state each year. I've never been to the state fair, despite having lived in Des Moines for 11 years, and I guess the last time I went to the county fair was over 15 yrs ago.

It's still a big deal around here, probably because we have one of the biggest county fairs in the area. And I live only about three miles from the county fairgrounds.

I haven't been to a fair in years, but I do have fond memories of funnel cake, corn dogs, and cotton candy.
