The Big County Fair!

Do any of you go to yours (if you have them) ?

We usually make a point to go at least once to ours every year, its fun and I enjoy helping support some of the 4h / FFA kids mostly because I was one myself once.

From the art galleries to the exhibits theres tons to do and with an open mind they can all be fun.

So do you go to your County Fair?

Mine has gotten big enough it has a website now.

We have a couple of big fairs that pop round each year and I try and go to at least one. I know the fairs I am talking about won't be as big as a county fair but there are a lot of tents that sell various things - from food to jewellery.

I've got an idea - an idea so smart my head would explode if I even began to know what I was talking about.

I haven't been to a county fair in forever. We used to go every year when I was younger (and usually had at least a project each from 4H in it). They are fun, but I can't do carnival rides (the slow rocking and super spinning makes me sick) so I haven't pushed to go recently.

We have a pretty huge one here.. and then there is the state fair which is a huge huge deal, but I have never been to either. They are so packed I just don't really feel comfortable.

We have the Laughton County Fair and the Cuckoo fair.

They're pretty big deals but I have no interest in going. Just never been a big fan of fairs.

And if they get me take this spike and, you put the spike in my heart.

I don't like going because no matter who I go with they refuse to get on any of the rides and that is the only point of going in my opinion.

There's a Fair that I go to every year, it's not very big, and I don't do rides or anything, I just there at night to watch the concerts and get hammered. It's just a complete **** show, it's awesome.

"How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball...The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can." Babe Ruth
