I feel like I'm the only person living in Iowa that doesn't enjoy the State Fair. I'm 32, and I've lived in Iowa almost my entire life, but I still don't understand the allure. As Keith pointed out in a previous blog, the fair is incredibly expensive. 10 bucks for admission, 10 bucks for parking, and for what? Over-priced food and drink? But more than that, nothing at the fair seems to interest me. I'm not shopping for a new hot tub, I don't raise livestock, and the "carnies" aren't all that interesting to talk to. The strange part is, I'm surrounded by people that live for the fair. I have college friends that live in downtown Chicago, and they annually make a five hour drive just for "East Side Night." I don't get it. What am I missing?
