What did you eat at the fair?

[AngieB]

OK, so what's the best thing on a stick at the fair? What's the newest deep fried delicacy that one must not miss?

What's a  State fair without Korn Doggies, and Cotton Candy and buttery popcorn and hot dogs deep fried.[xx(]

If you are getting a corn dog. go to one of the stands that employees are wearing a shirt that says "Jacks".

This guy has about a third of the corn dog stands and his are clearly better. He buys the best dogs and oil and has the best equipment.

I'm skipping this year, both in protest and also because I just don't feel like it.

The steak sandwich from the Oklahoma Beef group over by the barns.

I had an over price corn dog and an over priced polish sausage. As well as an insanely over priced beer to wash it down. Friend had one of them fried cheese bacon mashed potato thingys and I thought he was gonna need a private moment.

Wish I could do that concerning my job.

You can, although the fair will still let you come back.

Many people at the Fair are ticked off because of the Belle's thing. I don't fully understand the issue. I guess Belle's owned the rides or something and lost the contract to stay at the fair. Everyone liked Belle's Rides. I guess they had to tear down a million dollar roller coaster too. Gwen Freeman offten talked about it on her morn. radio show. I can only hear her radio show streaming on the web..[xx(]

It's not like the fair board voted Bell's out, so I don't blame nor punish the fair.  I rarely ride anything there anyway.  The exhibits, animals, food and people watching are way better anyway.

All I ate was a funnel cake.  Kinda trying to get rid of this "dear god I'm out of shape" feeling and fair food is not the answer (as I drink my morning Coke).

Actually, that's exactly what the Fair Board did.

Oh, and Sgrizz +1 on the protest/lack of motivation.  That and my left knee is jacked up.

I have nothing against the fair board itself, just Jerry Murphy and Randi Miller. And after two seperate multipe injury accidents so far this year (one involving very small kids) I think others would be willing to join an "evict the murphys" campaign.

Shouldn't the title of this string be: "Whadjeat at the fair"?

That needs to be taken up with our TulsaMINI. I guess there's a good reason for it's current title.[:O]

We ended up going so we could see Kansas in concert.

We ate a steak dinner thing - it was not very good.

The fair itself was mediocre at best. Without Zingo there wasn't much exciting. Ride lines were not long.

They added the small amount of parking from Bells - but would not let anyone park on the grass so they took more away than they added.

Murphy Brothers just spread out more - no new rides and what they have was same old same old...

Was not impressed. It will probably be another 3-4 years before we waste time and money there again.
