ANNOUNCING: Fourth Annual State Fair Trivia Contest!

2009 State Fair Trivia Trophies

Tomorrow is the first official day of our office's 4th Annual State Fair Trivia Contest.  As in past years, my officemates will fall over themselves vying to earn a trophy by correctly answering daily trivia (they earn bonus points by flattering The Judge a.k.a. Me).  Monday night we will traverse together through the Fair Grounds in an effort to complete the Treasure Hunt (think Bingo-meets-mullet- and Fair Hair-sightings).  I'll keep you apprised of my questions and their efforts.  Play along and earn your own trophy!  Simply answer the day's questions in the comment section.  You have until Tuesday, September 7 to send in your answers.

Note: Our rules are based on an honor system.  If you don't have the answer outright, you are allowed to consult the newspapers (in print and online), your friends and family members, and other Fair-goers. You are not allowed to consult the Official Minnesota State Fair Website.  The point of this contest is to spread your love, adoration, and knowledge about The Fair.
