      The annual Minnesota State Fair goes for 12 days and hosts 100k-200k visitors a day. The Alaska state fair averages around 295k over a couple of weeks. This 250 anniversary sham carnival would have to operate for about 1000 years to reach the lowe mark for a single day in MN.

      It’s a terribly planned and ran event that people are embarrassed to attend or just don’t want to waste their time standing in the sun with literally no entertainment.

        Or that they flat-out don’t want to attend because it’s been perverted by fascist idolatry.

      It ain’t gonna be any better.

      Don’t know if you live near DC, but we currently got one hell of a heat wave, something like 103 or so.

      And the thing about DC is, its always fucking humid in the summer, making the heat worse (I think the “feels like” today got over 114)

      This weekends gonna rain too. And for this area heat + rain is about the most miserable combination possible even with normal summer heat

      They announced earlier today the public is banned from attending some of the things happening tomorrow (like the rehearsals for Saturday) because the heats not safe.

      This place is likely gonna stay pretty much dead…
