In Minnesota it Snows

OK, I have the 12 days of Christmas song out of my head and it has been replaced by the Let it Snow, Let it Snow tune because it just won’t stop snowing! It is Minnesota and as a life long resident I am used to snow and I do enjoy it…for a little while, but I am so tired of shoveling and I am so tired of stomping off my boots when I enter the house. Is it summer yet? Is it time for the Great Minnesota Get together? I hope Santa brings us plenty of good weather and extra greasy cheese curds. Mmmmm…I am dreaming of a State Fair Christmas! Here is a message board that gives us Minnesotans pointers on where to find Cheese Curds on the Fair off-season.

Minnesota State Fair Song

It’s that time of year when I start listening to Christmas music. I just heard the 12 days of Christmas song and I thought to myself…if I was really clever and talented, I would write a parody called the 12 days of the MN State Fair – wouldn’t that be fun and appropriate since the fair lasts twelve days. They do call it the twelve days of fun ending on Labor Day.

How would I start my minnesota state fair song? Hmmm…On the first day of State Fair, my true love gave to me, some sunglasses so I could see…On the second day of State fair, my true love gave to me two corn dogs and some sunglasses so I could see…

I will work on the rest of the verses in time for the 2008 great Minnesota get together! Yes, it’s true, I love the Minnesota State Fair enough to write a song about it! Check back to my blog, you never know what I will think of next!

Brad Paisley Tickets

I got pretty good Brad Paisley Tickets – I am in the 15th row on the main plaza. It looks pretty good on the State Fair Seating Chart and when I was at the grandstand last year I remember thinking that most of the first 20 rows on the plaza looked like good seats.

I bought three tickets and I am looking forward to the summer night out at the fair. I am giving a pair of tickets to my daughter for Christmas so that means I will be screaming I love you Brad along with my daughter and one of her friends. Now the real question is will the fair get the Paisley tickets to me in time to put them under the tree?????

Brad Paisley Ticket Sale

Brad Paisley tickets go on sale this Saturday! I can’t wait! I know that August feels a long way off, especially with a looming snow storm on the radar, but State Fair Concert tickets are hitting the streets and it’s a sign of happy warm summer days to come. I have to admit I have asked Santa for a pair of really good Brad Paisley tickets. If there aren’t any good ones on ticketmaster then I will pay the broker fees and get them from Ticket King. See ya at the fair!

BRAD PAISLEY at the Minnesota State Fair GRANDSTAND

The Minnesota State fair is hoping to cash in on holiday spending by announcing their first grandstand concert. Brad Paisley will be at the State Fair Grandstand on Friday August 22nd. Tickets go on sale Saturday December 1st. I have to admit I am a huge Brad Paisley fan and I missed the show last year at the fair, but I won’t be missing it this year and neither should you! Buy Minnesota State Fair Tickets early and give the gift of music this year! The state fair is putting together a great marketing campaign around the show, complete with catchy tag lines like put a little Paisley in your stocking…Brad Paisley of course!

State Fair Corn Dogs

I picked up a pack of State Fair Corn Dogs at the grocery store the other day. They were delicious. Not as good as the original Minnesota State Fair Corn Dogs, but they were an amicable substitute during the blustery November days. Is it summer yet???

State Fairgrounds welcomes High School Hockey

The Minnesota State Fairgrounds plays host to a number of events year-round. Fall and winter mean hockey at the State Fair Coliseum. Minnesota State High School hockey games start just after Thanksgiving on November 24th. It’s appropriate that the Minnesota State Fairground would be host to hockey – Minnesota is known as the state of hockey and of course our fairgrounds represent the moniker. Let’s play hockey!
