Win a ribbon in the state fair
"Our state fair is a great state fair, it's the best state fair in our state"
It's no secret that I love musicals, but one in particular is the basis for this Bucket List item. Rodger's & Hammerstein's
State Fair is not necessarily the most catchy, the funniest, or the most dreamy musical, but it is the most American - as American as apple pie.
State Fair tells the story of the Frake family who all have different experiences at the fair - Mom enters food competitions, dad has a prize winning boar, the son tries to outsmart a booth owner yet falls for a singer, and the daughter just tries to figure out love. I've always wanted to win a prize but, somehow, that opportunity has always run away from me. I love doing crafty things and sometimes enjoy having others recognize my talents, but sometimes I have this little flicker in my ear that tells me I want to win something at a fair. Maybe someday I'll get up the courage to enter a fair, but till then, I'll stick with "...it's a grand night for singing."
