I can't decide if this is a clever satire or for real.

Me and my mom have been going there for there whole life and now to see that is gone and it is so sad My mom has been there for 50 and my grandparents 70 i couldn't think that this would happen but it did

How come so many other states grow and improve their State Fairs and ours "peters out"? Sad and disappointing. Great singing btw.

Just watched your video - COOL and CLEVER! We agree about your thoughts on the fair leaving town. Too bad, we've been going since the 60's & 70's! Not sure if we'll drive all the way to G.I., but we may perhaps give it a try once. We'll definitely miss the great food and free concerts. See you on the flip side, Tom! P.S. It was good to see you the other day, looking forward to getting together with ya. KV & MV

Thanks, Tom...enjoyed the video. I don't have any hope that the decisions made by the The Powers That Be will be overturned, and so fully expect the Nebraska State Fair to struggle to survive in Grand Island. The song captured my feelings about the whole idiocy. And for those who keep blindly supporting the University's plans for the State Fair property, all I can say is...oh, yeah, they did SUCH a great job with their existing Technology Park. Ha! It's heartbreaking to see what's happened.

My personal opinon is that it should stay here in Lincoln, however I think it should be up to the people to vote on. If they vote to keep it in Lincoln then it stays, if they vote for it to go to Grand Island, then that's where it should go.

dega you obviously don't know the facts or even have a hint of a clue

Good tune but the State Fair will be more appreciated in a town like Grand Island. The fair Grounds (property) in Lincoln will finally get some use! (more than 10 days a year) Still a good tune though! Thanks Tom
