That&#039;s no small point when you have small kids.  Kids don&#039;t comprehend a lot of what&#039;s going on at Disney, but they can interact with farm animals or go on small rides and know exactly what&#039;s happening.   They know funnel cake taste good, and ice cream works as well at the county fair as it does at Disney.
We&#039;ve tested the two side by side (Disney and the county fairs) and our verdict is that the kids liked both about the same.  And since the fairs are only a fraction of the price, guess which one wins with Mom and Dad?
Alas, that was years ago, now it&#039;s bigger kids, bigger expenses!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Paul, you left off the biggest reason of all, you can stay longer and come more often because it&#8217;s so much cheaper!</p><p>That&#8217;s no small point when you have small kids.

I bough a T-Rex and a Brachiosaurus yesterday, to join the other animals (tigers, bears, squirrel, hedgehog) on my cubicle ledge.
Yeah, I&#039;m an actual adult with a dozen years of IT experience for a huge company ... but I still like wild animals of the distant past and distant present :)

You definitely don&#039;t get that Carnie vibe though and without the smell of a funnel cake it just isn&#039;t the same. I think the best thing about the local/county fairs is just plain old people watching. It takes all types to make a county fair, and some of them never cease to amaze me.
