Don’t get me wrong, I love this country with a burning passion…
But we are just a little bit crazy…
We know this stuff is killing us…
But come on, it is fun to throw stuff in hot oil and see what comes out…
Oh yeah, eat some deep-fried fat and then… wait… what the hell is that???
We load people up with greasy food and then do that to them???
Yes, we do.
We are still the world leaders in giant inflatable corn ear technology.
We also lead the world in weird musical groups.
You can’t take that away from us.
Hey, it isn’t like we eat deep-fried food every day… at least not in California… I guess if you go to the South, that might not be true.
You see the red arrow I added to the picture above… pointing to the giant Texas-sized maple bacon donut… I had one of those…
That thing was huge… and awesome…
That sign up there… with the emergency nurse with the defibrillation paddles… that isn’t meant ironically… just so you know…
I am not sure why those English double-decker buses are in the parking lot ferrying people to their cars, but this is America… it doesn’t have to make sense… it just has to be cool.
Oh, and I got to pet two nice horses as we were leaving the fair.
























Do you think they had English double decker buses because they had English mascots? The Beatles – English? Double decker buses – English?
They have been around San Diego for a while… before the theme of the fair was the 60’s… but yeah…
I could feel my arteries clogging just looking at those pictures and yet I wanted to try it all. *hanging head in shame*
I did too… but I am shameless… so…
Ummm that donut looked awesome. And you have to see twitter, I just posted a pic for you to see speaking of horses.
I will do it soon
Have the bacon stall done everything possible with bacon? I’m gonna try and think of a few more things they can do to it.
Bacon sushi, has it been done? Will it make me a millionaire? I used to eat raw bacon as a kid so I’ve already done the market research, I liked it. I used to cut the rinds off and chew them like candy shoelaces.
uh… raw pork is sort of on the no no list
Dammit.
What about a bacon neck tie?
I’m expanding into other fields since the bacon as foodstuff has been exhausted.
Or a book about bacon printed on bacon.
Bacon air freshener, cologne and perfume
New form Dolce and Gabbacon
and Oscar Meyer…
So where is this, the Bacon County Fair?
Just your everyday county fair in San Diego at the Del Mar Horse race track.
where was this fair?
At the famous Del Mar horse race track near the beach here in San Diego… oh, and we also stole your idea of women wearing fancy hats to the horse races…
I would have loved that, I’d go to the horse racing anyway, but I like to see weird things.
It is fun to see what women will perch on top of their heads.
Do they go outlandish enough though? Fashion is still a priority for them, if it was me I would go for the most ludicrous thing possible
It does seem to be a contest
Fantastic! I love fairs.
I know… they are so weird and wonderful.
Thanks for reminding me to watch what I eat everyday. I mean, I laughed at the pics and your antics, but the message sank in. Thanks again, really.
I am that good
Haha!
oh yeah
watch your figure… or nobody else will…
I do not understand this bacon thing. I like bacon. With my eggs, a slice on a cheeseburger. But on a donut? In ice cream (from a Denny’s ad). A little bit of bacon goes a long way.
that is not thinking on the large scale
and you need a large scale… to weigh yourself… when you eat a lot of bacon…
I need a large enough one without the bacon.
awww
I can’t believe you actually ate one of those bacon donuts. My choloresterol wnet up just looking at it. Yikes!
I took one for the team
You’re all nutty as fruitcakes
oh yeah
Haha
yup
Pick one: industrial sized bacon doughnut or 10 extra years in a nursing home…
On a deep-fat intravenous drip tube…
ohhh drool, chocolate covered bacon… oh man, so need to visit the states again, missed out on that delicatessen… 🙂
really… this is what you want to come back to see?
haha, ok not really but belive me, I would so go for that bacon deal if I see it…. 🙂
that was worth a plane flight…
I guess we need double-decker buses because after all these bacon, people no longer fit into a regular-sized bus.
They also had those yellow school buses… I don’t fit in those…
This reminds me why I’ve wanted to move to Canada for the last 10 years.
I bet their giant inflatable ears of corn aren’t as good as ours…
I’ll let you know. I’m going to start swimming across Lake Erie this afternoon. Hopefully it won’t catch on fire.
Say hi to Trent and Zoe…
Haha! Great post!
Thanks so much.
You are so welcome!
I know you are, but what am I?
