MN State FairThe State Fair is integral to being a Minnesotan. True or False? Learning the new treat on a stick is frozen pickle juice was an exciting moment. True or False?

I love the idea of the State Fair. Executing a visit is a different story. I'm daunted by crowds, potential heat, my daughter's indecision over whether she wants to walk or ride in the stroller and so on. If I knew I could get in and out in around 3 hours I'd do it. Does anyone know what the crowds are like on week nights?

Got my discount tix and Blue Ribbon coupon book and I'm all set to go ... just don't know for sure when that will be. We usually go at least twice and one of those times is a weeknight. Never enough time to find all of my favorite food stands -- and the crowds seem to be there all the time.
