State Fair: 2007 Experience

(official site)

I went on the second day of the fair this year with my sister and Tyler (her b/f). It was a perfect day (partly cloudy, not too cold or hot) to be at the fair.

Tyler and Thelma wait in the ETC Lot (Park and Ride)
Walked behind one of the strange characters we'll be encountering throughout the fair.
*we passed by Al Franken (former comedian from S.N.L. and running for U.S. Senate next year, who was by his booth talking to folks



-Grandstand

-Games
Thelma was the first to win a prize (car pillow from the movie "Cars"), which Tyler would play many many games until he finally won a NY Yankees baseball hat from the 2 pitch speed guessing game. I played this too, which I though the speed wasn't very accurate because I usually thrown 57-59 mph. The game registered me 47-49???

Big over flow crowd in front of the KDWB Booth (across the street from the Haunted House) as we were trying get out and head home. The crowd was for "Fergie", who I really never heard of until I started to re"search"...
