#50 - Go to the Big E Fair (contributed
by Anna Bass)
October 4, 2009 - West Springfield, MA - Made the trip with Julie
Walker, Stephanie Slezycki and Jon Selby. I suspected we would have a
good time, but instead we had a freakin' fantastic time. We did all of
the following things, and of course more that I've since forgotten:
- Saw a guy sheer a sheep. He also told us
a dirty joke.
- Fed animals at the petting zoo (mostly
goats and sheep, but also a donkey and a zebu).
- Rode an elephant (see list item #18).
- Jon bought some sweet flip-up sunglasses
for $1.
- Ate deep-fried Oreos (totally overrated).
- Played "Whac A Mole".
- Rode a bunch of rides.
- Walked through a Fun House, when we
finally found one that had a functioning crazy rotating tube thing.
- Drank some beers.
- Watched a parade.
- Julie got "cuffed and stuffed".
- Saw "Rev Theory" and "Seether" in concert.
- Ate badass baked potatoes.
- Went mudding in the parking lot.
All in all, a successful day.
