How to do The Puyallup Fair
Thursday, September 18th, 2008
Posted by FairBlogger @ 12:59:38 pm
In a few days we'll have 2008 numbers to compare these to. But just in case you were wondering how 'epic' the fair was in 2007, take a look:
-People bought 1,116,381 scones from Fisher Fair Scones stands. That took 60 tons of scone mix, 25 tons of raspberry jam and 15,000 tons of butter.
-Vendors selling Krusty Pups distributed 149,200 pound of wieners dipped in 20,300 pounds of fried Krusty Pup flour. That was a record-setting amount of batter, folks.
-The Extreme Scream attracted 32,000 riders. Those who partook in the aforementioned scones and Krusty Pups undoubtedly felt sick afterward.
