Oh, yeah, I'm ready

 


As mid-summer passes, the minds of Minnesotans go to the same place: The State Fair is coming!

A lot of states have a fair, but nothing quite reaches the level of what goes on in Minnesota. It's profoundly old school-- the primary activities are eating weird food and looking at stuff-- but it's also different every year. Here are some highlights:

-- All-you-can drink milk stand
-- "Ye Olde Mill," which is basically a train through a dark building where you can make out
-- The Seed Art exhibit
-- Various political party booths where the politicians show up 
-- The Dairy Barn, where Princess Kay of the Milky Way is enshrined in a butter sculpture
-- Misc. arts competitions involving pretty much anything
-- The Univ. of Minnesota's newest apple
-- Things that are fried and placed on a stick
