Overrated.

That's the only word I have to describe the state fair. I went last year and hated it. I went this year, thinking it couldn't be any worse. It wasn't, but it sure wasn't much better. I, along with 5 of my good friends, rode the ferris wheel, ate everything under the sun, and walked through the car show. Am I missing something? Everyone raves about the Texas State Fair like it's God's gift to the hillbillies. I don't see it. In a diving economy, why are people still willing to pay 5 bucks to get to the fair to pay 14 bucks to get into the fair to pay 6 bucks to ride one ride? Perhaps my friends aren't enough fun to be with or we were just too broke to really enjoy all the fair had to offer. Next year will come and I will probably still go, so why am I even complaining about it? Blech.
