Rural county fairs need the following:

- Amazing food. I'm talkin' bricks of curly fries, corn dogs, veal bratwurst, elephant ears, cotton candy, chicken on skewers, buffalo meat, and teriyaki!
- Entertainment in the form of; juggling, acrobatics, short Mexican Johnny Cash impersonators, dogs in costumes, and a family of fiddlers.
- Lots and lots of farm animals! Llamas, cows, baby pigs, bunnies, chickens, goats, etc... Even better if they demonstrate how to milk some of these animals

Our local county fair took it up a notch when they brought in this guy and his rubbermaid containers full of awesome creatures that most kids have never seen up close and personal. He had a yellow snake, 3 yr old and 57 yr old tortoises, a giant gecko, an aligator, and a komodo dragon with TWO TAILS. The only one like it in the world. Silas is down in the front with the green shirt on. He got to touch each and every one of these awesome animals... it was fantastic.

Wow! I've never seen a brick of curly fries before, that's crazy! :)
It was awesome... the reason it's a brick shape is because they fill the square fry-basket so full that they cook into it's shape. Between the 3 of us we MAYBE ate half the fries.
Bricks of curly fries. What will they think of next.
They've already covered the world of deep fried twinkies/candy bars, etc... heh. Thankfully, none of those things were available to scare the bejesus out of me at our particular fair.
