The so-square-it’s-almost-hip fest features ostrich races (naturally), swine races (not quite so naturally), a demolition derby, a sea-lion show, a “Thrill Circus” featuring the “Globe of Death,” medieval jousting, and an odd slate of live music that ranges from contemporary country crooner Mark Chesnutt (pictured) to the antediluvian pop band The Grass Roots to Beatles and Led Zeppelin cover bands. Go at your own risk — though you might unwittingly find yourself diggin’ it.

At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $15,500 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
