Agree. The Oklahoma state fair and fairgrounds is a joke, compared to what it used to be. Sad.

Loved the monorail, loved riding the space needle, love the bubble roofed building. I miss those things, but if they are money pits and only used a few times a year and produce no income, they are a waste of taxpayer dollars.
I haven't been to the Fair since I was a kid since I'm usually too busy in he Fall since college and graduating and working non stop, but the Fairgrounds have basically been expunged of all the mid-century landmarks?

So what exactly is of value to go and see there? Just some sheds to showcase horses and new RV shows?
