I’m not a fair goer anymore. When I was a teenager I liked the rides , now it’s like nope, don’t want to go there. Lols. Good story as always.😂

Kind of feels like a “been there, done that” sort of experience.

LOL! I'm still traumatized by Levi getting off the ride with vomit all over himself so yes, the fair is now a no go for us.

Oooooof. Yeah, I think it’s the fair going with small kids that turns me off

Yes, I'm a fairgoer, I actually love a fair day with my daughter now that she's grown. we partake in some less carny style food cuz they have upgraded and added some extra premium food trucks. I usually ride a few rides and most of her friends are livestock raisers so we make a trip around the biggies and the cows

The Clay county Fair is actually probably one of the best organized fares that I've been to since living in Missouri

Thinking more on it, the allure of the charming pieces of the fair is lost on me as a parent to young children. Maybe one day, I’ll raise a cow to show!

it definitely has its perks but yes maybe as your kids grow it will become more comfortable and fun. I just enjoy a long fair day with Mia getting to see her on the rides 😄 and enjoy the sights

I mean, Sheriff Cook DID say there was “never any panic.” So…
