This year James was sick during the fair, so he didn't get to go and I only got to go for a few hours on the last day, but I got my corn dog, vinegar fries, and lemon shake-up. We don't go on weekends we usually go on a weekday. That way the crowds are not bad.<br />Sorry your experience wasn't so good. My husband and I enjoy people watching at the fair.Ronda Wnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1881122700730757071.post-66197255069260452072009-08-25T10:20:09.468-05:002009-08-25T10:20:09.468-05:00I am with you, I have NEVER been a fan of the Iowa...I am with you, I have NEVER been a fan of the Iowa State Fair!!!

Someone threw up on Tim's shoes at Memphis in May. Tim does not do well with vomit. Seriously. We went once and haven't been back. There were NO arts and crafts.<br /><br />On the flip side...<br /><br />went last year to the Arkansas State Fair in Little Rock with one of my sisterinlaws and had a great time. We decorated some tee shirts and won front row tickets and meet and greet with Kelly Pickler...the girls fav country singer!<br /><br />I'll have to find the post about it and send it to yaKaye Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149963938177172532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1881122700730757071.post-56687858857736891812009-08-23T17:09:16.321-05:002009-08-23T17:09:16.321-05:00Seriously, everyone I've talked to that's...Seriously, everyone I've talked to that's eaten at the fair this year has gotten sick! <br /><br />I hate crowds. <br /><br />But I do love fried stuff ;)<br /><br />I miss you...I think I get to see you tonight after church!Sarah@Life in the Parsonagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03129742817309651806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1881122700730757071.post-49990174591377636462009-08-23T16:50:46.265-05:002009-08-23T16:50:46.265-05:00I'm a Fair Girl...but I gotta say...stick to t...I'm a Fair Girl...but I gotta say...stick to the local fairs...I'm not big on the State Fairs either. Local ones are better...and during the day not on the weekend is your best bet to beat the crowds and get all the free stuff from vendors.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14984725625661799884noreply@blogger.com
