The 2016 Kentucky State Fair kicked off this past week in Louisville, KY bringing Kentuckians together to enjoy deep fried spin art and sweet Christian rock bands from the late 90’s. While there are a few attractions you’ll want to avoid such as various carnival games where the fix is in (sponsored by the KY Democratic Party) or the Buffalo Trace beauty line booth, this year’s fair has plenty of “can’t miss” stops. We’ve complied those here, in our Top 8 “Can’t Miss” Attractions at this year’s event.

8) Magic ticket booth that changes your hard earned money into tickets that let you watch fat, sweaty guys eat elephant ears

7) Globe of Death- see Bobby Petrino ride his motorcycle in the big sphere with a UofL volleyball player on back.

6) Ducks Out For Harambe- it’s the classic carnival game “Shoot the Ducks” but with a twist where you get to try and save Harambe.

5) Duke Taste Tour- serving the kool-aid Coach K has served in living rooms across America for the last 36 years

4) The Amazing Bearded Bevin’s Selfie Booth

3) Lady Houdini- watch as she tries to escape from Rick Pitino’s whips & chains

2) Mitch McConnell Shell Game- watch Kentuckians try to figure out where their dignity is as Mitch uses sleight of hand to hide it in the Oxycodone Tent
