Iowa is huge, we play that spot (Belle City)...The whole grounds isn't rides, but there are lots of buildings all over the entire grounds.
What about the Florida Strawberry Festival? (Belle City, also.) I feel like it's as big, or bigger than Iowa..
Oh, and...2011 was my first year there, but the Midway was Belle City and only one other show booked in rides...
There is a separate midway that they called the "thrill zone" or something like that, way on the other side of the grounds, that had a crazy mouse, a ride called the skyscraper (like a HUGE turbo force), and some other rides, maybe like 10 total.
I kinda thought there wasn't many rides for a state fair with that large of a fairgrounds..
Horses && Carnivals. <3
