It was a beautiful night, my husband and I decided to go to our local Sevier county fair, it was on a Thursday night and in my 37 years here in Sevier county have never seen so many people at our local fair. They had to have overflow parking, which I have never seen. Every single parking spot was taken. We just had so much fun just walking around and watching everyone have so much fun . My husband actually talked me into a corn dog eating contest, him and I both signed up for it. Well my husband had to stop after just one half of his corn dog, it was pretty dry and you didn't get anything to drink . Well they gave each of us 4 corn dogs, there was a 1st place, 2nd place and 3rd place, well it was me and a 13 year old girl, she didn't clean all her crumbs as per the rules, but fair enough we pretty much tied, but she got the ribbon and 2 free tickets to come back to the fair. We will go one more time just for the yummy -lishus turkey legs or something new this time a giant 1pound Porkchop on a stick. Unfortunately the biggest disappointment was the price of the food and drinks. Most drinks was $7&$8.dollars,just for a lemonade, but we found our sweet tea people kinda off to the side, a 20oz cup was$1.50 then $1.00 refills the rest of the night. Next time we go I will try to get some pictures. It was just such a perfect night, the fair was packed like I've never seen, and everyone was having so much fun, and smiling and just very nice to see so...

The staff and volunteers did a remarkable job of making its patrons feel comfortable and cared for. The entertainment was so much fun to watch.

The JBarK Professional Rodeo was held at the Sevier County Fairgrounds this weekend. There was a tremendous turnout of fans. The crowd was full of families who came to enjoy the rodeo. The event ran without a hitch. The performers were excellent, especially the little 7 year old girl who could trick ride. All of the cowboys gave it their all. The consessions and fair grounds were very clean. It was a...
Read moreWent to the Great Smoky Mountains food truck rally at the fairgrounds today. Easy to get to with plenty of free parking. The food truck rally was an awesome event. About 20 food trucks with a large selection of food. I had a Chicago style Italian beef that was as close to authentic as I've had down here. Chelsea had Red Box Hibachi and my daughter had grilled cheese. Of course some funnel cakes and donuts for dessert. This was a great event. I gave four stars because of the condition of the fairgrounds. Kind of out dated and a bit run down. The bathrooms were in pretty bad shape. No urinals worked and the toilets were filthy. The old fairgrounds could really use a face lift. A little repair and a coat of paint could help. I do still recommend going to an event that you would enjoy there. It's still gonna be...
