There's nothing that really jumps out at me on the new foods list. Usually there is something that stands out

You fucking wop |

Date: August 18th, 2025 6:06 PM Author: Balding Old Irish Cottage Juggernaut I don't think I'll get those. They are at Lulu's which had massive lines last year for the Deep Fried Ranch Dressing. I wanted to try that last year but I didn't want to wait forever in line. If I go to Lulu's I'm just going to try the Ranch.
Every year they come out with this new food list which has dozens of crazy new concoctions and ethnic shit. And then there's all kinds of holdover items from other years, so in aggregate there are hundreds of items at the fair that are odd in some way.
But when you're actually at the fair wandering around, all you see is bog standard fair food. Pizza, burgers, cotton candy, corn dogs/Pronto Pups, etc. All the wild and ethnic shit is somehow hidden. It's remarkable. You need to actively seek it out. |

That song feels sort of newish to me yet, but it's been out for 10 years now |

Date: August 18th, 2025 6:16 PM Author: Balding Old Irish Cottage Juggernaut I usually don't spend too much money on food there. It's all so overpriced. I'll get like one or two new items and some discounted stuff with coupons from the Blue Ribbon Book (Sara's Tipsy Pies, walleye cakes from Giggles). Get like one drink.
I'll carry in water and a lot of snacks. I'll often grab fast food on the way home. When I was a drinker I would often add a bunch of vodka into my water bottle.
This year I'll be on the lookout for some NA beer. |

Date: August 18th, 2025 8:28 PM Author: Balding Old Irish Cottage Juggernaut I'm a bit sad about a renovation they are doing to the coliseum. It's a 75 year old building and up until this year the vast majority of the seating was original. Wood and wrought iron. I got a real sense of history sitting in them.
Now they are being replaced with plastic. |

Date: August 23rd, 2025 12:01 PM Author: Balding Old Irish Cottage Juggernaut The Somali Street Fries are "The indisputable hit of the 2025 State Fair" according to the biggest local paper
"It seamlessly blends cultures with Somali-spiced beef, American cheese sauce and punchy basbaas for a late-night munchies triumph. We want to eat this in a comfy booth with our besties while dishing about the latest life updates." |

Looks like attendance is down a little this year despite basically perfect weather. Not a great sign for the economy |
