Ten bucks, no way. What happened to that hole in the fence? It’s OK. Media pass … for two, please.
They say fairs are dying – they’re not profitable and there’s waning interest. I don’t buy it. Charge every hotdog-on-a-stick-deep-fried-Snickers-roasted-corn-elephant-ear-slushie vendor a reasonable rate plus double digits for every visitor and if you’re in the red, you’re mismanaged.
Fairs can’t die because the rest of the world needs them more now than at any other time of the year. Just think how miserable these sweaty dog days would be without the annual freak safety valve.
