Every good county fair need a Demo Derby. I don't have a clue what they do with it, but guys come into the store buy a specific kind of wire for the cars.
The crashing, clashing, and smoke all add up to a good time!
I don't know if you can tell, but all the trucks line up in the background of the picture have large groups of people in them watching the derby. They can't easily take the beers into the grandstands.
My parents-King and Queen of the county, hobnob with the state politicians. (I don't remember his name or his position.)
The animal sale has a lot going on. There's tons of lemon shake drinking, bidding, and bullshitting going on.
See, I told you there were tons of lemon shakes. Often when you buy a kids animal they bring you one of these. The first couple are tasty, then not so much. Some kids even bring candy.
Remember the bullshitting. It starts right here. These guys can keep up with the best of them.
After awhile the sale starts to drone on and on. Even the sale workers have to make a call for pizza, in hopes of getting a break at some point. (10am-7pm--long day of sale.)
Of course, there are the champions. My parents and a couple of other businesses brought the Reserve Grand Champion hog. Check for their picture in the newspaper this week!
More pics tomorrow. I don't want to overwhelm you. *grin*
