Another year another day at the Great Minnesota get together. Always fun whether you go for the tons of food they have every year including the growing list of things they find to put on a stick or weird combinations they come up with, the rides, game and of course people watch.
I would like to give a shout out to all of the parents mainly the dads that go above and beyond for their kids at the fair especially the little kids. It takes a hell of person to go on a little kid ride because they didn’t realize that their child was too little for that ride. So now they have to try to fold and fit themselves into the ride like trying to fit an offensive lineman into a ford focus, it can be done but highly not recommended. But it’s safe to say in the end, it’s all worth it when you see a huge smile on your child’s face. Next year I want to see more moms attempt to fold themselves into the small rides instead of having the dads walk around the fair with a bad cramp from getting in and out the small rides, NO EXCUSES!!!!
Women, what is the purpose of wearing heels to the fair? Do they not realize that all you do walk and eat? The fair is not an outside club. I mean you could just stand in one spot all day but why even go to the fair just to do that. And if you’re going to wear heels to the fair at least make sure you know how to walk in them. There’s nothing worse than seeing a woman that can’t walk in heels. They look like a baby taking their first steps or someone trying to skate for the first time because they’re hugging a wall to balance.
And while we are talking about the women, I do realize that most of the days during the fair were hot so you try to wear something comfortable to stay cool but don’t try to show a little too much if you know what I mean. Please remember that people bring their kids and families to the fair. They don’t want to see someone wearing a too little mini skirt with your dirty thong showing, YOU NEED YOUR ASS BEAT!!!! Why set yourself up for being pointed at and talked about all day at the fair. Most women know better than that. Key word is MOST.
I think this year was a record for seeing fanny packs. But now I do feel some the people that wear them at the fair. That look hasn’t been since the 80’s but I do understand. The one’s I really don’t get and are a little too much are these industrial size fanny packs that you can carry a water bottle. What’s next, walking at the fair with a long straw in the water bottle so you can keep your hand free? It’s already bad enough that fanny pack are somewhat still style and relevant.
