What Is Happening At The State Fair Of Texas In Dallas Friday October 8

Looking at the list of what is happening today, Friday, October 8 at the State Fair of Texas in Dallas I can see why going to the fair wears me out.

I do not believe I have read what has been sculpted out of butter this year. I am a big butter fan, so that butter sculpture is a must see when I go to the fair.

Getting to the fair has been made way easier now that a DART line takes you right to the entry. The last time I went to the State Fair of Texas I parked at a remote lot somewhere to the east of the fairgrounds. The fair provided a couple means to transport fairgoers to the fair from the remote parking lot, with one of them being a TRE (Trinity Rail Express) train.

The State Fair of Texas is very easy to find, it is just a little south and east of downtown Dallas. Just aim yourself for the big wheel sticking high up in the sky, or consult this map. If the long list of what is happening at the State Fair of Texas today is not sufficient enticement to cause you to go to the bother of being a State Fair of Texas Goer, them maybe my video with Big Tex and the Midway will help convince you that you want to go to the State Fair of Texas.
