    I returned to the Clay County Fair on it's last day (Sunday) of the 2014 event. I drove all the way…read moreup from Ames for the Day, instead of other Sunday alternatives (like the Tom Harkin's last steak fry in Indianola), and never looked back (except to check for the Iowa Highway Patrol). I paid $5 to park less than a half-block away, and then entered what is perhaps the best County Fair ever. I spent most of my time marveling at the huge displays of farm equipment (of various brands), barns full of farm animals, and various commercial exhibits. . I also got to visit with one of the Richter brothers of 3 Sons fame, enjoy some of the Art at the Barn, listen to some good music, watch some cool model trains and some chain saw art, and of course nosh down on a nutty bar. I left feeling happy, healthy and terrific, and i really hope that I can come back next year.

    The people of NW Iowa claim this is the greatest county fair in the world. I have been to multiple…read morecounty fairs in Iowa and I will say it's the best one I've been to so far. The fair does a great job of providing lots of things to see and do. If you like animals they have everything from horses and cows to bunnies and goats. They have typical fair events like carnival rides, farm equipment, and an expo area. They also have fun different things like a baking contest, table setting contest, and a big railroad area. Like any fair most people go there for the food and this fair is no exception. Clay county fair is known for its Nutty Bar ice cream bars. It also has a boat load of food venders. I got the bacon tenderloin that had bacon ground up in the meat and it was great. All in all I can't recommend the fair enough. I still prefer the Iowa State Fair more but you truly can't go wrong with either. If you go to this fair I guarantee you will find a couple things you enjoy.

    Mankato Riverfront Park/Vetter Stone Amphitheater…read more Well me and my Gal took a drive to Mankato for another of our Kid un-friendly events. We got tickets for a concert at the Vetter Stone Amphitheater at the Mankato Riverfront Park. We found some street parking close by and had a short walk into the park. Grabbed our 21+ wrist bands and headed to the beer tent. The line moved fast enough but as the night progressed we found out they really needed a few more tents. They had a full bar but cheap crappy beer. $4.50 for a Tall Boy Grain Belt wasn't bad. At least it wasn't expensive crappy beer. Standing in beer line ended up being some of the best entertainment at the event. So the lineup was Lita Ford, then Dokken, next Sebastian Bach and closing out the Show Ratt. We would have preferred to have just seen Lita and Sebastian as neither one of us were big fans of Ratt and Dokken back in the day. Lita Ford... Still hot at 54. Great show, Old stuff new stuff and even Cherry Bomb from the Runaways. 4 Stars. Dokken... We were pleasantly surprise we ended up enjoying them more than I thought we would. 3 Stars. Sebastian Bach... Kicked Butt! Still has the voice and puts on a great show. It was great when he stopped the show a few times to "encourage" the fans to get pumped up. Plus he has an awesome bass player. (I have all ways liked a great bass player better then an average lead guitar) 5 Stars. Ratt... I could take a pass. They were boring compared to the other 3 bands. We left the concert before they were done with their set. It was phoned in music in the 80's and hasn't improved with age. 2 Stars. The Park and Amphitheater... Good acoustics, great sight lines, they had plenty of Biffs, (however as I mentioned not enough beer tents) You can bring a chair or blanket if you want. (we had a blanket along but rock n rollers don't sit much during concerts ) 4 Stars.

    Just attended our first event here - overall, it's a nice local venue and I'm hoping they can get…read moresome more great entertainment here. I understand it has been renovated, but had never been here prior. Seating - was all assigned and chairs were provided. The seating and rows were very tight. Bars - good, food trucks were also available which was fun/unique- but we had ate prior to the event, so we didn't try them. Restrooms - were just portapotty's - was often a line, could use some more. No lights, so hard to use once it got dark. Security - to get into the event went fine- checked ID's, bags, and metal detector.
