TC Back Talk: Jeff Olsen at the State Fair
Favorite food on-a-stick?
Pork Chop. One year I think I ate my weight in them during the run of the fair.
Is there a hidden gem of the Fair?
The route I use to get there. Not tellin’.
What is your favorite free activity?
People watching.
Do you have a musical act you are looking forward to?
Tonic Sol-fa. They’re at the Leinie Lodge Bandshell this year on Sept. 4th and 5th.
What is a “must do” every year at the Fair?
Cheese curds and Sweet Martha’s Cookies
Is there a spot to go to get away from the crowd?
The Skyride. Used to be a great place to take a date… Now my kids dig the bird’s eye view.
What is your favorite State Fair memory?
1988, Grandstand, REO Speedwagon. Perfect!
Strangest thing you have seen at the Fair?
Chocolate-covered bacon. Strange, but oh so delicious.
Do you have any advice for first time Fair goers?
Bring a cooler. They let you do that! Spend your money on the stuff on a stick not the pop in a cup!
