Damn, I was just about to make a State Fair General with Minnesotans & Iowans specifically in mind.

Thinking I might go this Sunday; I have a list ready for the top five things I plan on trying this year that I've never had before (I made it literally after going to the State Fair last year):
-Alligator on a Stick
-Big Fat Bacon
-Fresh Cut Fries
-Pork Mole Tamale from Tejas Express
-Turkey-to-Go (I know for sure I'm getting a pulled turkey sandwich, but flavor recs would be appreciated)

The Iowa State Fair is the second-biggest State Fair in America & there's somewhat of a rivalry between the two.

Bruh

When you're at the State Fair you need an even balance between sweet & savory, and at least one healthy-ish (i.e. some vegetable stir fry from the International Bazaar) item into the mix.

At least you got the GOAT State Fair food tho (nitro ice cream).

Renaissance Fair's cool too; I've only been there once since it's a bit further from home, but I may go this year.

I live less than 15 minutes from the fairgrounds, but I almost never go. Way too expensive and way too many people.

Are you doing both in the same day? Thats a lot of time & energy.

Anyways if you love food & can handle large crowds, youre in for a treat!

Meanwhile, the biggest state fair in the United States (Texas) doesn't start until September 28th.

So close. Yet so far away. A bloo bloo bloo.

I hear ya. I haven't been in like five years or so. I am like 20 minutes away or so. There are just way too many people there all the time. You basically need to go when it is raining if you don't want to be swarmed with people.

Minnesota State Fair is actually the biggest in America. Texas has the largest yearly attendance overall, but thats because it runs twice as long.

Youre right. The daily attendance numbers are much higher for Minnesota.

I went yesterday and went to the Nordic waffles stand. I had the salmon waffle, and it's BY FAR the best item I've ever had at the fair. Would recommend 10/10.

Also I got the obligatory Sweet Martha's cookies.

I've only been to the state fair twice despite living in MN for all of my life and one of those times was with a college class where we had to go to certain exhibits to get credit for the day. I prefer Valley Fair to the state fair because of the rides.
