Khassi Kellison and her friends stated, "We like the rides and all the greasy junk food and all the cute boys!”  

“We just wanted to come out and have a great time and it's a lot of fun, a lot of interesting sites and it's a fun place to be,” said Fair attendee, Jared Wilkinson

No matter what the reason for attending might have been most agreed the fair is always a good time.
