Last week I went to an airshow with the Blue Angels and yesterday I went to the Nebraska State Fair.
The Fair Scammer #
My state, Nebraska, is largely agricultural, so it should be no surprise that the fair had multiple buildings stuff to the brim with animals - cattle, sheep, chickens, pigs - and while I find factory farming of the animals stomach churning, I’m also not about to stop eating meat (I guess my stomach is more powerful than my will), and either way, that’s not really what was on display here. Largely, these were show animals and they’d been well cared for. It appeared that the farmers and FFA kids, while they knew it was to be meat ultimately, mostly respected the animals. There was a “birthing pavilion” as well, and baby animals will melt anyone’s heart, mine included. It was great.
