Our town of 4500 puts roughly 25000 people through the fair in 2 1/2 days. It is a pretty big deal with a steer show, heavy/light horse show, sheep show, tractor pulls, chucks, grandstand, art/craft/baking exhibits, trade show, petting barn and machinery, midway, etc. The cost is pretty reasonable at $5 which includes everything but food and midway rides.
