    If you ever travel to the midwest, the Minnesota State Fair is the biggest state fair. Almost every food is on a stick and even some none food items. There's camping quarters on one end of the park. I have only been a handfull of times so I don't know much of what makes it unique aside from the size and the stick thing though.
