For nearly two weeks at the close of every summer, the New York State Fair [13] serves up these in hopes of generating memories for hundreds of thousands of people.
With a wide array or entertainment, exhibits and foods, the opportunities seem endless for nearly 1 million visitors expected during the 12-day event.
