most of the fairs are not worth the admission. they tend to be smaller every year, excepy fryeburg. someone thinks raising admission to cover cost is the way to go. they might think that, but charge less equals more attendence. more attendence they could charge the vendors more. at 14 a sausage i think they can afford to pay a bit more.
For someone who lives here and goes to the races. Maine racing is a very sad product.
I've been to them all and Fryeburg is still my favorite. Always crowded with food prices off the chart. But it's position as the last Fair of the season and hopefully cooler temps makes it a big draw for lots of people. If you walk from the lot to the pavilion entrance you'll see tags from as far as Jersey and Pa. Lot's of local homeowners use their lawns for parking at $20 bucks a car. The harness races are packed and that rickity old grandstand looks like it might collapse any day. LOL But thankfully it holds up every year. For pure agricultural fun, the Acton Fair has lots of cool exhibits and great food. But nom harness racing. That's the only drawback. LOL!
Believe it or not some of the Maine women at the fair finally got a chance to show off their stuff. It's a big deal for them to wear a little tiny cut offs and a halter top with no bra it's amazing what you see at the fair. The rest of the year they dress it's long sleeve shirts and jeans.
Fucking pervert!
