Indiana State Fairgrounds Comments and Reviews

Review by Sarah A. in Indianapolis

“Whoo hoo! Just seeing the fairgrounds makes me want to hoot and holler. The most notable event at the fairgrounds, of course, is the Indiana State Fair. Usually held in the sweltering dog days of summer, the State Fair is something I always look forward to, with its amazing food (pork tent, I love you, and you, elephant ears, and you, lemon shake-ups, and you milk booth, and you roasted corn ears, etc., etc.), exhibits of various farm equipment, live sheep shearing, animal competitions, somewhat frightening amusement rides, and ridiculously overpriced carnival games. I always look forward to seeing the world’s largest hog–who, miraculously, turns up in Indiana every year without fail!–as well as the DNR exhibit, the cake contest winners, the wedding gowns and the quilts. I think the State Fair, while wildly expensive, would be fun for just about anyone.

During the rest of the year, there are car shows, home and garden shows and other events of that nature at the various buildings on the grounds. The Pepsi Coliseum is a skating rink year-round and home to the Indianapolis Ice during the hockey season.”

Review by Brandy S. in Muncie

“A LOOOOT bigger than it outwardly appears. All the buildings surround a horse track. On the one straightaway is a large grandstand, where people can either view the horse events, or the concerts that take place during the Indiana State Fair, and at other, less frequent times.

Went to the 150th Annual Indiana State Fair this year. First time I had gone in 11 years – couldn’t remember much of my first trip, but if I had, I might have worn better shoes. You will be doing a lot of walking for any event that is held here, that’s for sure. Lots of bathrooms around the facility (not Port-a-Potties; actual bathrooms), however, and tons of places to get inside into the AC and rest.

All in all, if you are coming to a big event like the State Fair, please take my word for it – Ride the shuttle…”

Review by Chad B. in Paoli

“I have gone to this every year since I was a senior in high school.  A total blast!  My advice is this- Do not go here for the rides/ or games because they are a waste of money.  They are pretty terrible and can cost a lot.

The best parts of this experience are the FOOD and the ANIMALS.  There are baby animals as well as huge pigs.  The food is super yummy and fried.  I can’t wait to go tomorrow!”

Review by Todd R. in Indianapolis

“Indiana Rib-Eye is still open around the southeast bend of the oval, but there is a Hoosier Rib-Eye that is trying to act as a knock off.  The Indiana Rib-Eye is soooo much better, so it is worth the walk!

If anyone wants to know what deep fried Pepsi is, it is a doughy type of pastry injected with Pepsi syrup and brown sugar… and it’s waaay to sweet for even me.

The world’s largest boar (pig) lives in Indiana and is 1100 (that’s one-thousand, one hundred) pounds!  And it even breathes….

Now it’s open for three full weeks!”

Right now it sounds like Expression Engine is the best blogging platform available
right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it
or something. I think that you could do with a few pics to drive
the message home a bit, but instead of that, this
is wonderful blog. A great read. I will certainly be
back.

With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement?
My blog has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my permission. Do you know any solutions to help reduce content from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.

What i don’t realize is in truth how you’re not really much
more neatly-favored than you might be now. You’re so intelligent. You already know thus considerably in terms of this matter, made me in my opinion consider it from a lot of various angles. Its like women and men don’t seem to be involved except it’s one thing to do with Lady gaga! Your own stuffs excellent. At all times care for it up!

We’re not the official page for the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Check out the homepage at http://www.in.gov/statefair/fairgrounds/

The event calendar is here: http://www.in.gov/statefair/fairgrounds/events/monthly.html

It seems that nothing is posted so far beyond March.

Looking for a list of events for March – May at State Fair Grounds. Isn’t this available on your website SOMEWHERE? I’ve spent way more time than I wanted and still haven’t gotten a listing?!??

All I asked for were dates of the Spring flower and patio show in Indianapolis and it seems you can’t just give a simple answer. We plan to be in Indianapolis March 11 thru 13. It would be nice if you could just publish an itinerary for the dates of the show
