Ohio State Fair
Definition
An annual state-level agricultural and cultural exhibition held in Columbus, Ohio, traditionally featuring livestock competitions, midway rides, live entertainment, and an iconic life-sized sculpture of a cow carved entirely out of butter.
A quintessential midwestern social gathering where the density of deep-fried food items per square foot reaches dangerously high levels.
