Talk:New York State Fair

Untitled

Before someone labels this non-NPOV, this really is the actually name of the fair. I'm not calling it great! newkai 22:52, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

Attendence Records

God, someone please fix this table. There's nothing chronological (neither by day of week or year) nor numerical about it. The days of the week bounce all over the place as do the years!63.118.154.94 (talk) 00:41, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Tone, Copyedit, Advert tags

I just added the tags noted above. Currently there are statements such as:

The State Fair Coliseum was built in 1923 and its first event was the World’s Dairy Congress. 5,000 people came to view the million-dollar mile of bovine lords and ladies of every color and breed.

Although only 10 vendors are located in this family oriented building during the fair, it is packed to capacity every day. It is one of the buildings that almost every fairgoer has on his or her check list to visit. At the top of the list is the butter sculpture at the building’s heart, and next is probably the best tasting chocolate milk in the world, sold at the Milk Bar for just 25 cents.

Located in the Dairy Products Building is a must-see attraction for fairgoers of all ages, the butter sculpture.

This article needs quite a bit of un-P.R.-ing before it would be appropriate to remove those tags. KConWiki (talk) 01:24, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
