Ten things (in no particular order) that you can only see at the Texas State Fair:
1. a midget puking in a trash can
2. albino turtles, albino snakes–their exhibits are liiiiiiiiive
3. men walking around in leggings stuffed into cowboy boots (we never did figure out WHY)
4. some of the worst fashion choices this side of the Mississippi River
5. fried peanut butter, jelly, and banana sandwiches
6. some guy trying to return his turkey leg for one that was “more tender”
7. a ride that doubles as an airbrushed homage to Magnum, P.I.
8. $25 parking
9. t-shirts that say “Git-Er-Drunk, then Git-Er-Done”
10. Big Tex’s crotch (which was all you got in frame if you tried to take a picture in front of Big Tex)
We had a pretty good time at the fair on Saturday. Our group collectively gorged ourselves on Fletcher’s Corn Dogs, fried oreos (among other fried goodies) and funnel cakes. We rode some cheesy (or pukey) rides. Shawn fulfilled his manly duties by winning me a giant stuffed wolf/dog. We got lost on the way back to the car. Good times were had by all.
