    This is a State Fair folks, it is not an amusement park, can't compare them. Prices will be high if you want to ride all the time. If you go for the true fair atmosphere it is not that bad. I buy 2 season passes each year that comes with bonus coupons for $115. Have fun multiple times and watch some pretty dang good concerts in the evening and not bad bands playing during the day. Only available online for purchase.

      jeffmaxfield1964 I’m from North Carolina, just moved here, our state fair has more rides and big ones too like the first one shown. I was very disappointed driving 4 hours from San Antonio to come here. Food was great though.

    I like how you’re complaining that the rides are $6 to ride (12 coupons) oh I’d kill for Australian carnival rides to be that cheap!!
    1 coupon is normally $1.50 and the majority of the rides cost 6-8 coupons. So at least $12 to ride a carnival ride... :).

      You have to understand that the minimum wage is right over $7 an hour though. Dallas also has a growing real estate market and rent is incredibly high, not to even account for other issues. It's rough for a lot of people who want to go to the fair with, well, more than just their self! The fast food restaurants close to the grounds get a lot of money, for sure, though. People try to eat up before they enter.

    Went to the state fair on 6th and a bunch of guys wearing the longhorn T-shirts were trying to sell those 3 dollars US flag gifts to people, and kept telling people if they don't buy them they don't like America. Told them not interested then they got mad and cursed. How come those trashes were allowed to sell staffs at food court?

    That Wind Storm Coaster used to operate as a permanent attraction at Fun Forest at Seattle Center. The ride operated from 1992-2010 and in the latter years it ran rough. We had a chance to ride it at the Iowa State Fair and were pleased in how well it ran. I believe Steve Voorst purchased it from Fun Forest and refurbished it prior to leasing it out as a traveling attraction to fairs.
    The Washington State Fair in Puyallup, Washington, also operates a Sky Ride with enclosed gondulas. This ride operated at the 1962 Seattle World’s Fair and became a permanent attraction at the fair in 1980. We also have a historic wooden coaster, a Schwarzkopf Wild Cat, and another permanent coaster that originally came from the Azoosment park in Indiana. Another permanent ride is a 200+ foot S&S drop tower.

    One time when I went to the fair I went on a ride called the viper, and what it was was the ride lifted up and spun around (not up and down side to side) and then after a wile the arm the seats were attached to started spinning then after that the seats started spinning. After riding that I dubbed myself the spin ride king.

    Rabbit on the unicycle used to be a guy with a top hat lol. Long time ago. Texas Skyway has been there for probably 50+ years. It was closed for a while after a car fell off and some folks were killed. (1980s) I'm certain tech improvements will prevent that from ever happening again.
    Starship is another one that has been appearing there for many years. Most of these are the same rides that have been at the fair for a very long time. Pretty high nostalgia factor.

    We went broke going here!
    Just the entrance is $18 per person and the food is ridiculously pricey. 37 coupons for a turkey leg and $10 to play a game that you will eventually lose. Save your money and don’t go here.
