Instructions

    • 1

      Buy tickets. You can often find discount tickets through local businesses. You can buy tickets at the front gate as well.

    • 2

      Take a day of vacation, and go during the middle of the week. The crowds are much lighter and you won't have to wait in long lines.

    • 3

      Take the plunge and buy the unlimited ride wristband. It is well worth the money, and it will delight your kids to ride the roller coaster 50 times.

    • 4

      Eat fair food. There is nothing that compares. Forget your diet for the day, and eat to your heart's content. Fair burgers are a must along with the elephant ears. Don't leave without trying the scones. Order extra to munch on through the day and even take some home.

    • 5

      Take a break from the weather, rain or shine, and look through the indoor exhibits. It is possible to pet many of the animals. They smell bad, but they are so cute.

    • 6

      Stop and see a sideshow. There is so much to entertain your family. Concerts and rodeos often perform at the fair. You will need to purchase these tickets in advance.

    • 7

      Be sure to leave well before or well after rush-hour traffic. After plodding along all day, you will be very tired and in no mood to deal with crazy drivers and delays.
