We thought it was pretty funny when it happened to my brother. To be fair, they did give him a different bowl with a live fish.
a bigger than life size model of Michael Jackson made out of butter. Ruined the butter and it just seemed to be a bizarre thing to do. MidSouth fair, I loved going to it until it moved and became a ghost of its former self. Now we have 3 fairs within a few weeks of each other and they are all boring.
Disneyland.
Eunice?
It’s overpriced at the fair, too. They charge two or three bucks for what amounts to a couple of teaspoons of sugar on a stick.
I’ve seen variations of this. It IS crazy-assed.
This is the most entertaining thread I’ve read on the Dope in a long time.
I once took my girls to the Free Fair, only admission is free but nm, there was a featured freak, little linda from Haiti. A black woman with extreme dwarfism, very small maybe primordial. We had just two tickets left, so I sent my two girls into the tent alone! They reported little linda was reclining on a small bed, eating popcorn and watching a tiny tv looking very bored.
This year my kid went back, college poor, so she made wristbands of many colors, and after scoping it out, they wristbanded themselves and went on rides. They parked for free too, using the old ruse, “I’m only here to pick up my friend”.
I guess that explains Vince (of ShamWow fame) in particular. We didn’t have decent TV at home until I was in junior high, so I missed a lot of the classic infomercials, except for AMAZING DISCOVERIES.
That guy lost his shit!
