Ag Hall At The Fairgrounds

Growing up in Allentown, the fair was part of our lives. From being a boy going with my parents, to a teenager jumping over the fence and ogling at the girlie shows.

Both my father and I had stands at the fair. He had a food stand one year as a warmup to opening a fast food drive-in. A friend and myself made and sold printed tee-shirts during high school.

As the years passed, my interest in the midway waned, but I found Ag Hall more interesting. You know you're entering the sedate stage when the bottled vegetables at the Grange exhibit interest you.
