I stopped by the fair yesterday morning- my first time this year. I love it. Here are some things you only see/do at the fair:
A group of people eating breakfast around 10:30. Pretty normal right? The guy standing there talking to them was having a beer.
Having cheese curds at 9:30 in the morning.
A food stand advertising "lamb" outside the sheep barn. I don't understand people's desire to eat the live animal they have just seen. I am never like, "look at that sheep, wish I could eat me some of that." This also is the norm outside that pig barn and the cattle barn.
A guy I was buying candied apples from asking me if I was planning on getting into a fight later. Apparently on the midway candied apples are considered a weapon.
I was about to "vote" with a kernel of corn. An old guy said, "gimme some corn I wanna vote for McCain. Which ones for McCain?" (They are clearly labeled) "I wouldn't want to vote for that damn Obama!"
So I said: "Don't worry, I'll vote for Obama for you."
I don't know if he heard me, but the guy giving out corn thought it was pretty funny.
That's all I can think of right now, I'm probably going back tomorrow so I'm sure I'll have another fair post soon.

Oh man, that sounds like good times at the Fair!
Did you have any fried twinkies?
No! I have a very unfortunate illness that does not allow me to enjoy such delicious treats.
I've always thought that it was a little cruel to make the animals smell their own kind of meat cooking.
