State Fairs Are All About The State

Today I picked up a brochure for the upcoming New York State Fair. Aside from the food, games and crafts, there is going to be music during the 2-week fair. Each one of the days has a special theme. Here’s the list:

Governor’s Day
Law Enforcement Day
Public Employee Federation Day
Dairy Day
Beef Day
Women’s Day
Veteran’s Day
Student’s Day
Civil Service Employee Association Day (this one gets two days, btw)
Labor Day

If I were cynical I would attempt to point out that these groups might just happen to have a special relationship with the state and obtain extra perks.
