Its Almost Fair Time

[OklaCity_75]

In a little over a month we will all be heading out to the state fair.

What is your favorite part of the fair?

[metro]

You need an option for people who don't care to go to the fair.

[Midtowner]

The fair is pathetic. It's not fun, everything is expensive, and the people there scare me. I prefer the mall to the fair.

[OklaCity_75]

I figured people that do not want to go would just move on to the next post.

Okay.........

It's the state fair not a dinner party in the Hamptons.

I don't know, but with those prices for everything at the fair, you'd think...

man you get to see all the latest 80's fashion at the fair...gotta go

We do the walk around, eat, drink and get the hells outta there technique

You'd think, huh?

I'm with Midtowner. The fair is a complete joke and a waste of my time and hard-earned money. What a joke!

So does IHOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :boff:

We use to one of the best fairs in the nation, but what happened to it!!!!!

[jbrown84]

Nothing happened to it. Fairs are fairs. People that don't like them don't like them, even the best of them. It's the whole atmosphere of the fair that doesn't do much for some.

[ETL]

Yeah, with the technology that people have today, it is almost as if fairs are obsolete. I love the fair, and I think it is neat. Maybe, we could modernize it just a tad bit more to attract a wider crowd.

I'd rather go to a Redhawks game and watch Keith and OklaCity_75 down a funnel cake. It's more fun!

Why is Toby Keith not coming to OKC on his tour!!!??

[mranderson]

Why is Toby Keith not coming to OKC on his tour!!!??

Because he lives here.

[ETL]

Has he ever performed at the Ford Center?

[Patrick]

Has he ever performed at the Ford Center?

Yes.

I do plan on taking in the fair. I'm looking forward to comparing it to the Minnesota State Fair which is supposed to be one of the nation's largest.

Neither Lori or I are big on rides. We both can well served to stay away from the food booths. (like that will happen)

I'm sure this fair will be heavy into agriculture. I assume more into livestock than horticulture.

Anyway I'm looking forward to a good time. Does the fair have a website?

I can't wait to see the fat lady walking around with a cinnamon roll in one hand, a corn dog in the other, and an elephant ear in her mouth.

Here she is....sipping on a drink she got at the fair:

[OklaCity_75]

I am looking forward to it this year because its going to save me some money. I need to have a spray on bedliner put on my truck. Every year Line-X and Rhino linings have booths out there and they offer deep discounts.

While I am there I will eat my state fair traditional meal which is a pork chop sandwhich, fresh cut curly fries and a fresh squeezed lemonade. After that I will probably take a look at the new car displays and head to the house.

The rest is just a flea market enviorment and the rides are a ripoff.

Sure its not the Squeezecake factory or Penn Square Mall but I am going and I plan having a lot fun.

[Easy180]

hey I'm there with ya Okla...have to hit the pancho dogs and corn first off...finish off w/ an indian taco washed down with 4 or 5 beers

I just wish they still allowed the dunk tank guy to berate and cuss out passersby...too tame now, but still pretty funny
