The recent Fair, by simple math at the 4th grade level would show possible discrepancies in how to count numbers beyond ones ten fingers.   It seems the figures released show it is a loosing proposition as estimates and possible income are millions of dollars apart in only the gate attendance.  

Is there some relation between the county commissions, the high paid CEO and the Fair Board Trust acting as county  commissioners?

Is there a reason the citizens will have to wait months before a simple count is made on how much money is posted in an indefinable loss column?

It the city annexing another hundred-of-dollar loss obligation?
Today we stand in ecstasy and view that we build today'
Tomorrow we will enter into the plea to have it torn away.

we are sort of already covering this in another thread.

I was not aware that there had been any coverage since the question was raised by the TW.  It was not my intentions to rehash such an item that retains such an importance to the intent of the fair and its outcome.  If I have posted an duplication thread it was not by intent.  We extend our apology and hope that a full examination of the expenditures charged to the taxpayers for years of constant losses be made available to these taxpayers.
