AustinGorton<p>For @ComicsXF, I merge two things I love, the <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/XMen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>XMen</span></a> and ridiculously over-the-top deep-fried fair food. </p><p>Who's a corn dog?

Nathan Stohlmann<p>Semisonic at Leinie Lodge is standing room only tonight. Even the seating in the other side of the street. (Images later after I get somewhere with better signal)</p><p><a href="https://twit.social/tags/MNStateFair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MNStateFair</span></a></p>
Nathan Stohlmann<p>To be clear: I do not think there has ever been a line like this at the West Gate. <a href="https://twit.social/tags/MNStateFair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MNStateFair</span></a></p>
Justin<p>Two days later, it's time to unpack my experience at the <a href="https://mas.to/tags/mnstatefair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mnstatefair</span></a> <br>Arrived with the sister-in-law and her six yo, with plans to meet up with my wife & 4 kiddos a little later.<br>Parked at a lot across from the Fair for $30. After doing a park and ride last year, this was a justifiable expense I think I'd gladly incur again with young ones in tow.<br>No lines to get in, threat of afternoon storms kept the big crowds away. It was pleasant initially and warmed up quickly</p>

Mildly Amusing Bored Housewife<p>Been at this table for about 8 minutes and this couple finally spoke to each other. I couldn’t tell they were a couple up to that point. <br><a href="https://c.im/tags/mnstatefair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mnstatefair</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/couple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>couple</span></a></p>
Justin<p>All I had to do for the very nice folks in camouflage at the <a href="https://mas.to/tags/mnstatefair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mnstatefair</span></a> was a set of pull-ups and fill out my name, address, birthdate, and social security number and they gave this nice lanyard <a href="https://mas.to/tags/blessed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blessed</span></a></p>
Doran Wetzel<p>So, there’s a wonderful Sensory Building to disappear into at the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mnstatefair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mnstatefair</span></a> that’s run by Fraeser(?). Not 100% on the spelling. But, my youngest kid, along with my wife and I, surely do appreciate having a quiet place to let our brains settle. Check out the life size impression my kiddo made in the giant impression board they had! Attitudes swiftly improved and we made it 14 hours at the fair!<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mentalhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealth</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gratitude" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gratitude</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/family" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>family</span></a></p>

Brian Mitchell<p>I'm sore and tired from my long fair day. Happy Monday! 🙃 <a href="https://mspsocial.net/tags/MNStateFair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MNStateFair</span></a></p>
Brian Mitchell<p>I spent 10.5 hours at the <a href="https://mspsocial.net/tags/MNStateFair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MNStateFair</span></a> today! I'm pooped, but it was a fun (and hot) day! Good to be back after two years. I probably don't need to go again next year, I like this every other year cadence 😅</p>
Twin Cities Geek :1up:<p>This week, beat the heat, geeks, with plenty of outdoor music and festivals offering a range of cold drinks and good food, stop on by the fairgrounds as the <a href="https://mspsocial.net/tags/MNStateFair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MNStateFair</span></a> continues, dive into history at an archeological tour of the <a href="https://mspsocial.net/tags/Miinnesota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Miinnesota</span></a> state capitol, and more! <a href="https://mspsocial.net/tags/MNastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MNastodon</span></a> <a href="https://twincitiesgeek.com/2024/08/this-week-in-geek-8-26-2024-9-1-2024/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">twincitiesgeek.com/2024/08/thi</span><span class="invisible">s-week-in-geek-8-26-2024-9-1-2024/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon</span></a></p>

Nathan Stohlmann<p>Peanut Butter Honey Cream Soda Float from the Horticulture Building: As long as you like peanut butter, honey, ice cream, and soda this is pretty amazing. Don't like any one of those? Might be worth trying anyway. The PB is strong on the nose initially but merely nutty on the tongue. The whole thing is much less sweet than you would expect with nice vanilla to cut the honey. I wish they had this at the Urban Growler tap room! (Also available with plain Honey Cream Soda) <a href="https://twit.social/tags/MNStateFair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MNStateFair</span></a></p>
