The Hillsborough County Fair...

Or, 'Why try when Busch Gardens is down the road"
The Hillsborough County Fair!

So... this year I made my first ever visit to the Hillsborough County Fair... And I'm gonna just say... It'll probably be my last visit too... Its not a bad fair, but I don't see myself making the effort to visit it again when so many other Florida Fairs are so much better.
So here we go... The 2016 Hillsborough County Fair
Midway by Arnold Amusements
Cage of Death... thing
Robo-Chicken Show!
Random "county fair" type stuff... uh... We didn't have this kind of thing in Massachusetts
Plants... and stuff
Goats?
Quack quack?
DUCKS!
Also..... also.. Moo?!
Since it was $1 day... We felt a book of 10 tickets would be more than enough to make a lap around the fair.
Games and stuff
Jumbo and the Fun Slide
Tilt-A-Whirl
Mardi Gras fun maze
Cliff Hanger... A ride I hadn't been on in years... ha
The Mulligan Ferris Wheel, the first ride we rode.
The midway, and entire fair is pretty small... for it being a county fair
(and the fair for a massive city like Tampa!)
The adult ride midway.
The kiddie ride midway
Mmm, KMG Freak Out....
And a Tiv Orbiter <3
Running pretty good too!
Oh... look, uh, me... Riding the Cliff Hanger.
Since I hadn't been on one in years
(back in the early 2000's this ride was such a game changer for my local showmen... Now its so overlooked)
<3 ARM Super Shot <3
Had to ride it... twice :D
The Krappy Kreeper Krypt
Uh... we passed on this one.
And the only coaster here, a Go Gator.
(no, I didn't ride it... or even try.............)
Woo? Really... our visit to the fair was to just waste some time before heading over to Busch Gardens Tampa for Howl-O-Scream!
