My one complaint was with Midway Cards. I had the boys and three separate cards. They had just enough to do one more ride between the three cards. When they got up there they said couldnt split them between three cards. They needed the full ride amount on one card. If that's the case just go back to the tickets. Or you know, one ticket per ride. We really don't need to make it an algebra problem to get on a ride.

It was a very hot day but plenty of shade to escape to and some buildings a/c We were there for 4 or five hours and only got thru the animals. Ate pronto pups,blooming onion and funnel cake and a slushie food was hot and delicious

We haven't been in awhile, and we had a great time. Might sound silly, but loved the fair food. Funnel cakes, fried green tomatoes, to the fried jalapeño twinkie. Love some fair food
Jacob Garcia
The state fair was fun but the rides couldn't be operational due to a storm but overall plenty of games and the fair even has a petting zoo.
