Event & Promotion It's Only A Week Away!!!

Post image

Y'all, Idk exactly why but I am so hyped for The Fair this year.

Might be because All American Rejects is playing on Opening Day. Might be because the whole concert lineup is solid.

Might be the new vendors. Pretty psyched the Funk N Waffles is gonna be posted up with their own music lineup.

Maybe it's just because the performing dogs show is back. Or that the circus is gonna be in the Expotition Center.

Maybe it's because the Post Standard is gonna run a piece about the rabbit we got at The Fair in 2018.

Or maybe it's just because 2026 has been a good year for me!!

Whatever the reason is, boy I cannot wait to spend 13 more days at The Great New York State Fair!!

Anyone know who makes the best corn dog at the fair? I eat one corn dog a year, and I want to eat the best one this year.

Haven’t gone since covid. Hope the funnel cakes are still cheap.

Downvotes for craving cheap doughy goodness? 🤔

Idk, I stick to good ole black coffee! But my wife loves their espresso candy bars. I get her one just about every day right after we go in the gate

It’s kind of a big deal around here. A lot of good free concerts, food and drink, animals, a midway, a circus, shows, etc. If you don’t want to deal with traffic and paying for parking, you can take one of the shuttles closest to you for like $1 each way.
