Did You Know…About the Ohio State Fair?
It is not too late to visit the 2012 Ohio State Fair! The fair runs all the way until this Sunday, August the 5th. With all of the pavilions, arenas, stages,
rides, and let’s not forget the fair food, there is always something to do at
the Ohio State Fair. See the schedule right here!
Did you know that The Giant Slide has been a fair tradition since 1969? Or that The Skyglider is one of the longest portable sky rides in the world? Both are open from 10am to 11pm daily. Mountain Dew has sponsored this year's midway which has 60 plus thrilling rides including the other traditions of the fair; the ferris wheel and carousel. The midway is open from 10am to 11pm during the week but stays open until midnight on the weekends. Kiddieland keeps the same hours as the Mountain Dew Midway, including the special weekend hours.
Great musical acts such as Chicago with The Doobie Brothers, The Isley Brothers, and Gavin DeGraw with Colbie Caillat have already played their scheduled concerts as of last week, but there is still more to come with the finale of The Ohio State Fair's musical guests. Tonight, Boston will be playing with special guest Kansas, and many other acts are still on the schedule to be shown by the 5th of August. See the concert schedule here.
Not only will you get the chance to eat a deep fried buckeye at the Ohio State Fair, you will get a chance to meet some of the real life players. If you are an Ohio State Buckeyes fan, your day will come on August 4th from 11am to 1pm. According to the fair's official website, "Buckeye fans catch all the action of Ohio State Athletics. Meet
and mingle with Ohio State athletes and coaches, get discounts on
upcoming Buckeye sporting events and try out some of the Buckeye
interactive activities." Best of all (if there really is anything better than meeting the real, live Ohio State athletes), the price is completely free!
