"Alligator Aaron" of the "Silly Safari Show" holds "Polly," a python snake.
I caught the tail end (no pun intended) of the "Silly Safari Show," part of the 4-H Fair's "Kid's Day." Events geared toward children were lined up from early morning to late night Thursday.
The blue-tongued skink was displayed. "Alligator Aaron" touched his tongue to the skink's, which got a reaction of "Ewwws" from the crowd of children. Next was a skunk, and then "Polly" the python snake. Audience members lined up after the show to pet the scaly creature. Even Ronald McDonald, who was next on the event list, got up close to view Polly.
Some kids were frightened and some warmed when Ronald McDonald made his appearance at the fair. He made jokes and did magic tricks for the crowd. When it started to pour outside the event tent, Ronald had the crowd do a "rain chant" and yelled to be heard over the thunder.
The cookie-stacking and pizza-eating contest came next. Yours truly entered in the pizza-eating contest, but alas, I only could scarf down three pieces. The winners of the competition ate their whole pizzas in less than three minutes.
What kind of fair fun did you have today? Comment and let us know!
