Will the Tractor pulls sell out, or will I be able to buy tickets at the gate?

Do they have that "fried Coke" stuff I've heard about being at the fair before?

That's really the only value I see in the place. If I get some confirmation that it's actually there and really exists, I'll probably go and get some.

I'll probably go, but I won't ride any rides. People die on them rides.

Look on the state fair website for the exact schedule. The Tractor pulls are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of the first weekend. The Demolition Derby is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of the second weekend.

I haven't been in... over 15 years I guess.

I'm going to eventually have to go to take the kid though. Maybe this year. I just hate, hate, hate, crowds.

I'd love for them to move the fair somewhere else. Free up some traffic in this area and maybe even get a larger venue so people have more space.

I know some of you are my friends and some of you like the fair, but...

I can't fucking stand the fair. If I'm going to eat something that unhealthy, I'm going to get it from a place that gets cleaned nightly and doesn't staff ex-cons. And why people want fried candy is beyond me, aside from the novelty effect. Why not go fry a live bat or something, that would be CA-RAAAAZY, too. If you're gonna go, go all out. Ok, fine, if you like fried candy bars, more power to you. Why would you buy it from a guy with a greasy molestache and mullet whose probably gonna whack off while looking at your gf while serving you (and then hand you your food with the same hand).

And OH BOY I WANNA WAIT IN LINE FOR THE WORLD'S LARGEST (and most abused) DONKEY while a little kid throws up on me and everyone else blows smoke all over you. I had to throw out the clothes I wore the last time I went to the fair. I hope they've banned smoking there, b/c I feel sorry for you people otherwise. It's like, take a bar, multiply the smoke content by 100, and you have the fair. And when you're done there, get ready kids! It's time to go sit in a greasy chair while a paedophile straps you into a cage so some little kids can scream and cry as you hope this contraption doesn't fall apart (cause you know, a safe ride is one that's slapped together 100 times a year by meth heads).

The fair is more overrated than Halo or Mad Men, and that's saying something.
