The Fair has changed a great deal...but it is still the Fair. You're right the prices are out of sight and alot of folks can't afford to attend. But moving the Fair to the Bay area wouldn't prove anything...the cost would be much more there and what makes you think more folks would come? Your weather over there really isn't the best for a Fair...I could go on and on...

Will there be Midget Car races at the Fair Grounds again this year on Sunday?

I used to love the county fair (used to enter plants every year, won quite a few ribbons), but won't even bother going anymore. The prices get to be pretty high for an event like this... I understand charging a decent price for parking at the fairgrounds, but the adult admission price is just a bit much (and it didn't seem like too long ago when it was only $15 to ride the rides all day... heck, at LEAST give a discount to kids for that arm band).
Maybe if the fair wasn't 25 miles from the population center of the county, they'd get more visitors and wouldn't need to charge quite so much. At least they have a shuttle service from CB... though I wonder if that costs anything (I would have assumed so... maybe they should charge a buck or two for the ride, and reduce the admission price).
