We look forward to seeing you all at the 2021 Marshfield Fair.

Somehow I've never heard of the Marshfield Fair until now. Sounds great, and I hope to get there in a future year! I finally made it to the Topsfield Fair last year.

Less Trumpies close to the beaches.

That being said, this means that high school program extras for the sports teams and the really good music program pull in a lot less money since kids run the parking lots on the town fields near the fair and thus the programs benefit.

Southeastern MA is the Trumpiest part of the state.

This actually has a pretty diverse crowd when I’ve been (off and on the last 10 years). I think the Bristol County area is the Trump area you are thinking of. (Middlebro, Lakeville, etc.). I mean there is your country fair element here, but I wouldn’t call it some sort of Trump fest.

I was thinking this was Bristol County - in the words of Ted Sarandis, 'a thousand apologies'

You are absolutely correct. It is a fun time and the overall tooth per person does sink a bit those weeks but the worst part about the fair is that it is the end of summer when it kicks in.

Drown the Clown, a superabusive clown on a dunktank platform with a loudspeaker taunting people walking past.

Grandma's Racing Pigs, an actual pig race where the winner got a Oreo. No sign of Grandma, the thing was run by two young guys I later saw doing a magic show at Spookyworld.
