Nothing Compares to... Corn Dogs on a Stick

The slogan of the Iowa State Fair is, "Nothing Compares". That is an understatement in just about every category you can imagine. The food, music, livestock shows, midway rides and more.
This was shot at the end of a Sunday night. The Midway was clearing out, and the people were grabbing their last snacks for the ride home.
From Wikipedia:
The Fairgrounds comprises over 445 acres (1.80 km2), of which 160 acres (0.65 km2) are campsites. Annual attractions include the world famous Butter Cow sculpted by Iowan Sarah Pratt, the 10 acre Midway and its double Ferris wheel, one of the world's largest livestock shows, the country's largest state fair foods department (more than 900 classes), the state's largest arts show and over 600 exhibitors and more than 50 foods on-a-stick![2]
The Iowa State Fair places a great deal of emphasis on the agricultural presence in the state. To that end, there are many livestock shows and sales. These include contests for the biggest animals: the Big Boar, the Big Ram, the Super Bull, the Largest Rabbit and the Heaviest Pigeon. There are also livestock shows for sheep, swine, beef and dairy cattle, horses, goats, llamas, rabbits and pigeons, as well as cat and dog shows.
Additionally, the Fair is home to several zany contests including pigeon rolling, rooster crowing, wood chopping, pie eating, monster arm wrestling, outhouse races, cow chip throwing and tall corn. It also hosts the world's only Lawn Chair Toss competition.
Future Dates of the Iowa State Fair:
2012: August 9–19
2013: August 8–18
2014: August 7–17
2015: August 13–23
