Eventually we got in, found the grandstands, paid for our tickets to the demo, went to find seats and this is what we saw:
A race track. We weren't sure how there was going to be a demo derby, there was no place for the cars to smash into each other. The only thing we could guess is that demo derbies in the South are maybe more about the racing than the smashing. We were pretty bummed about the non-smashing of the cars.
But were were even more confused when we saw the cars:
Yeah, there was only ONE demo-derby-looking car to been seen. Turns out the rest of the cars did not show up! How does this happen? We don't know! They had to cancel the demo derby because there were no cars! I think we both of our jaws touched the ground when they told us the demo was canceled. Their excuse involved some type of communication error, but they weren't really sure. We got our money back and decided that we probably won't return next year. All in all it was a very confusing and weird experience.
We had a better time when we met up with some of Tim's school friends. We all had lots of fun eating delicious fair food and enjoying other fair things. We found the livestock barns and went in to check things out. Right then it started to downpour. We didn't have umbrellas so we found a seat and watched people show their cows in competitions. Suffice is to say we ended up spending 30 minutes more then anyone would ever want to in close proximity to cows and goats.
All in all we had a great time at the fair and lots of laughs!
