The Great Minnesota Get-Together

I was a little skeptical about how great the news was saying "The Great Minnesota Get-Together," aka Minnesota State Fair, actually was. Utah State Fair, not so great. Arizona State Fair, alright. It had a few, mark that a FEW, redeeming qualities. Both of those fairs paled in comparison to the Great State of Oregon. And, of course I'm not biased. However, I did venture to the Minnesota State Fair this year just to see how great it really was. I actually like wandering through the animal barns, seeing shows, and people watching. I walked in the gate and... are you serious? It was worse than Disneyland! They weren't kidding about it being the great get-together.
