With Cuomo at the helm of this state there will likely be no fairs at all this summer. EDIT: 4 events cancelled Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/06/2020 11:34PM by nyspullnut. Reply Quote

I agree, I don't expect a single fair in NY this year. I sure hope I'm wrong because I love going to the fair with my wife and kids.

Side Note: We are no longer accepting PayPal donations. They have changed their terms of service and stated they would fine PayPal users for spreading "misinformation" and "hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory". PayPal did not provide definitions for some of these vague terms. Woke corporate policies regarding "misinformation" could result in an automatic fine of $2,500 which would have been removed directly from the customer’s PayPal account. PayPal did backdown from some of their policies but quietly implemented portions of them in later terms of service. A financial institute has no right to monitor social media accounts or speech. This is unacceptable and I'll no longer do business with PayPal.

I know it's not New York...
Mid-South has had three weekends of pulling canceled, so far.
(Another event was pushed back to the middle of August.)
But that has the season starting on the second weekend of July.

And I think that's optimistic, at best.

I assumed it would be but now that it's official it just stinks. It's become a family tradition for my wife & three kids and myself and I'm really going to miss it.
