The Fair

So today my mom and i went to the Salem fair. What a rip off.

First of all, the food in the petting zoo was 5 dollars. And those animals really needed it.

That cow over there practically begged for food. I think i may have even saw it put his hove up. There was this one Al Palca that looked like a poodle. It might of been mistaken for a poodle. There was even some klepto animals there. One of the goat/lama things stuck its head through the gate separating the animals and stole hay from the bale of it in the sheeps' cage. Tsk tsk tsk. This one animal was the cutest there. I dont even know what it was or where it was from. All i know is that it looks like a rabbit/ kangaroo/horse.

And the people there scared the living daylights out of me. This one vendor that we got ice cream from looked like he picked his nose before he gave my mom her cone. We didn't eat that cone. There was this guy had bragged that he ate "95 Krystal burgers". My mom laughed. She couldn't even get down two. And while we are at the food subject, there was diesel pouring into the tent where we ate. mmmh mmmh mhh carbon monoxide!

And the games were a rip off too! There was Ski Ball. You got 6 balls for two dollars. And to get a prize you needed to get 200 points. Now, I'm not a math genius, but that is physically impossible for a toddler, being that you needed to get only 50s, and most players are toddlers.

And the ticket situation! BIG rip! If you didn't get the wrist band (which is 15 bucks), you would have to pay 18 dollars for TWENTY tickets! I wouldn't even ride those rides if you PAYED me 18 dollars!

And do you believe people drive in from New Jersey and Florida to see this fair?? All i can say is wow. Just plain wow. Hicks would do anything to "get a thrill" with the one tiny roller coaster that this fair has.
