Default Going to the state fair today!!

Unused coupons from last year...... 
20oz cokes to get in free..... 
money for corn dogs galore, funnel cakes, etc..... 
and my driving skills to test drive the '10 camaro..... 

thats right, at the setup by the livestock area they are letting you take it for a slow ride around the cone setup. But what they don't know is if they actually let me behind the wheel, the pedal's going to the floor!!

I'm not sure about the rest of you but I enjoy going multiple times every year. It's one of the few things I look forward to do, the food, the mass amount of people, and yes...... the carnies! Anyone else going today?

I haven't missed in 30 years but this one might be the breaker. I could go for one of those corndogs right now.

Have a blast. I went to the local here in MO about a month ago and had a blast. The weather was mid to upper 70s the entire week.

I'm still out here, not bad so far. Killed one Fletcher dog already! The camaro test drive was a joke, not only was it the v6 but you had to drive another GM car before you could drive the camaro, LAME! So I passed, but I got a camaro tshirt. It's a sz large, way too big for me, only sizes they had were L-XXL, catering towards lazy/fat America much? Just got a cariacture done with the fiancée, first one I've done.

Haha that was a good one! Guess I should've just said I don't like big baggy shirts. No offense if any was taken. Just left, started getting insanely crowded and I was outta money. I'll be going again in a week or so. Oh btw, in the auto building you can sit in the camaro, Z06, but not the ZR1. They keep those doors locked, probably a smart choice. But I was extremely dissappointed in the room sitting inside the camaro, both front and rear legroom. But it did feel more like a snug, drag car feel especially the way the seats hug around the torso.
