arrow What I saw at the fair on Thursday

As I've mentioned before, I love the Big Fresno Fair. Here's what Day 2 had to offer this year:

Here are some photos:

Hey, they painted over the "Thanks for coming" sign (what's up with that?):

I like the use of video... I think I saw a client of mine at the horse races that canceled an appointment because they were sick :-)

Looks like it was a good time; something I'd actually like to take my family to.

Who was rapping towards the end of the video clip?

I think they painted over the thanks for coming and the whole mural in that tunnel because of grafiti.

Oh yeah. I feel quite justified in avoiding this freak show.

Thanks for the reminder, Will. Good editing, BTW.

I liked the psychedelic bit during the 'rolly polly' song.
That hillbilly boogie music is a trip.

Will, those masks/hankerchiefs are great!!!! Actually, at SCRG's bout next weekend, there will be a secret guest skating with us. She's back by popular demand and she's skating in my place. I wont tell you who it is, but she used to skate with one of those hankerchiefs wrapped around her face.
If anyone can guess who it is, i'll give you 2 free tickets.
Because yes, for me, all things come back to derby.
