It’s exactly what you would expect a small fair/carnival to be. Decent rides, a couple of fun houses, lots of games. The only reason for the four star is because it is ridiculously expensive!

HAWGFEST! AWSOME! It was like old times when it was at the beach, only better. So many nice people. My friend has a hard time walking, so Joe, the security guy, carried her to and from places! Thanks to him, he was awsome! Met some really nice guys from Albuquerque. To Mouth and his friends, and… all military, thank you so much! You're all awsome. Lots of beautiful bikes.
