by Jill Riley

Grab your sunscreen, wallet, and your most comfortable walking shoes, because the Minnesota State Fair is upon us once again.
Serving as the end-of-summer highlight for many Minnesotans, the fair is filled with the wackiest attractions, awesome live music performances, and the tastiest food. If you’re heading out, enjoy the day, and try not to eat too many pronto pups.
