| - We went on a free day, though it was still $8 for parking in the lot right up by the entrance. They let us bring in our own water in unopened bottles -- cool! We saw the high dive show, the comedian's show, and -- firsts for me -- the BMX bike rider show and the monster truck show; that last one was extremely loud.
Also a lot of 4H and FFA projects: think great big cows, sheep, goats, and a lot of pigs. There was a big variety of craft projects and a lot of displays by the Phx Police, Fire Dept., power companies, etc.
Also a huge variety of foods and merchandise like framed art, art done while you wait, stuffed toys, and I apologize to the other vendors for forgetting their wares!!!
Not nearly as many rides as the state fair, so if your heart is set on lots of rides, the state fair is your event.
Not a lot of shade, so bring your sunglasses and sunblock. If you have to go out to your car, let them stamp your hand so you can get back in without having to pay.
