I LOVED the Big E when I lived back east. San Diego and Los Angeles both have county fairs and they are fun, but not like the Big E. The Big E always feels so "old" meaning it feels like a fair that has been around for many many years. Everything out here on the west coast is "newer".

Plus the Big E has the state houses - one for each state in New England. Maple cotton candy in the Vermont house, clam fritters in the Rhode Island house, lobster rolls in the Maine house, etc. Great memories for me there!! But do not go thinking you are going to find any healthy food. No dieting allowed at the Big E!!!

Im just waiting for the post asking why this or that player isn’t there (like we would know) or mixing up who is who like an eye exam is in order. Also discussion about height and not considering the angle of the photos.

Thanks for sharing the information on what exactly the "Big E" is--me being old school, I immediately thought it was some type of tribute to Elvin Hayes ")

We attend the Big E once every 4 or 5 years. Always a good time. Back in the fifties,that’s 1950’s, my father manned the Ralston Purina booth while myself and my siblings had the run of the place.

If I had only known they would be there, I would have driven down from Pittsfield!!!!

Definitely an exciting day for the ladies nothing like a visit to the Big E at the end of the summer. Thanks for sharing.

There was a day when using ladies in connection with our Huskies would bring censure. Have I missed the memo?

PS. Is that Saylor front left of the second group photo?

To heck with that. I want to know why I wasn't there. Looks like great fun.

Description not a title is the difference

It is the term "lady huskies" and not calling them ladies that is the diference here.

Thanks. I can stop looking for Elvin Hayes.

My knees have ended my trips to the Big E but I still have some wonderful memories.

1. The dining experience. The long "street" from the chicken dinner at the Lions Club down to the Polish food stand at the other end. The London Broil sandwiches. And a bag of freshly roasted peanuts for the ride home.

2. The animals. The Bud Clydesdales. The farm "aroma" of the 4H barn.

3. The product displays. I always loved watching the Ginsu knife pitchman was always my favorite. "free juicers come with each knife. Did I say knife? I meant 2 knives."

4. The rides and games of chance.

I always collapsed once I got home.

Thanks eebmg. I certainly had no idea what the Big E is. Never heard of it. Sounds like something I would enjoy attending.

There used to be a State Fair in Danbury on the current site of the Danbury Mall. I attended that too back in 75.

I think that Saylor is in the back on the first photo and that the one on the front of the second is Dorka.

Did Caroline shrink a few inches? Same height as Azzi?

Just the opposite, Dorka holding the husky stuffed dog, first photo in back.
