Most of the “little gangbangers” are there on the free night (yesterday). Otherwise, the fair draws a pretty normal crowd of people the rest of the time its going. I work the grandstand arena at the fair every year, so trust me on that! You will have a good time and be amongst decent people for the most part.

Right on that, Buddy Guy outdid himself, wandering the aisles while playing and limitless energy for his age.Thorogood can still sing andhardly anyone was seated during his performance.Beer was flowing and no problems seen.
Shuttle to parking makes parking pretty safe.
Now I have to say this fairgrounds, except for the concert area, sucks.Old fairgrounds had character, trees and grass.This one is a paved strip with ugly, overpriced food vendors and a carnival.
Concert A plus, the rest, except for the barns, C-;

You have a point there but George Thorogood and Buddy Guy are too good to pass up.Just gotta be careful in the parking lot.
