State Fair of Texas!!!!
 

For all you Texan Greeks (and of course the surrounding areas)

How many are planning on going to the State Fair of Texas?

I'm super excited!!! It's going to be a great time! http://216.40.241.68/otn/realhappy/luxhello.gif

When? Where?

Fill me in!! I haven't heard. :(

BTW, Bayfest is going on in Corpus this coming up weekend. Roger Creager is playing on Sunday and I can't wait!! :)

LL Cool J is going to be here this weekend also. :eek: LOL We had MC Hammer here a few years back also. No, I didn't go see him.

The State Fair of Texas is going on from Sept. 27th - Oct. 20th at the Fair Park in Dallas

The Dixie Chicks and Pat Green are just a couple of the *many* entertainers that will be there!!!

SATX*APHI - have a super time with Roger Creager @ Bayfest!!

OMG, a woman standing next to me at the Texas State Fair one year got shot. Just right there in front of everyone--by a drunk.

:(

That is just a not cool that people who can't control themselves when they are drunk mess such a great thing like the State Fair up for everyone

Ya know, in my 20 years (21 in 3 weeks) I have never been to Dallas! I have a friend who goes to school at Austin College in Sherman, about an hour north of Dallas. I keep saying I am going to go up and visit, but I haven't made it yet. Betcha can guess I won't be going to the State Fair of Texas.

Carnation,
Not to make light of the story, but why doesn't that surprise me?!?!

Hootie :p

eh, i WOULD go, but A&M has a home football game this weekend.

Seeing as how i plan my weekend activities around Aggie Football, i'm going to have to miss it. Although taking into account our current offensive struggles, it'd probably be more fun to watch OU and t.u. slug it out.

Y'all that go, have a lot of fun. That being said, Boomer Sooner!!

Hey, it surprised me--it happened so fast! This drunk pushed her way up to the fron of a booth and the lady there said politely, "Sorry, you'll have to wait in line," and the drunk woman just pulled out a gun and shot her right on the spot.:eek:

From Oklahoma -- but going down there anyway for OU-Texas game. Going to watch OU pull a hat trick on Texas :D

yikes.. that's crazy.

on the news the other day they said they were going to be searching any and every kind of bag and they might even have those lil metal detectors like the airlines use.

i hope nothing tragic like that happens

i guess i'm the only GC'er who's planning to go :p

I remember last year at OU-TX they were pretty tight on security. It was less than a month after 9-11 so pretty understandable. I'm just hoping that Al-Queda doesn't care about football:D

lol ktsnake

yep i heard on the news they are going to be especially tight on security during the OU-TX game and the concert days of the fair

Ahh, so sad...so misguided....;)
I want to go to see Pat Green!! But I probably won't, because I have finals the first 2 weeks of October :(
