I'm sending my kid and his friend to the fair does anyone have any idea on how much money they will need to have a good time .
And also any good recommendations on food and attractions

[Ruffdaddy]

Are they just eating and boozing? Or playing the stupid carney games as well?

First time this might actual apply

Yup, a hundo doesn't go very far at the SFoT. Parking is $15.00 per car, $17.00 per person, $13.00 for kids and seniors. You can ride the bus or train, but you have to worry about Ebola now, lol.

Tickets/Game cards credits are $.50 each. Games are $5 each(10 credits from a game card). Rides are $5-$10 each (10-20 tickets). Drinks are 8-10 tickets. Food is 10-20 tickets...

Not hard to drop $100-$200...

Well they got tickets from school I was thinking about giving them like 100-150 bucks and they are riding the train there.

It's amazing how fast and how high prices continue to rise. I keep thinking things have reached a ceiling, but people's sense of value continues to warp.

Most people don't treat the tickets the same way as they would cash. It's alot easier on the mind for them to throw 10 tickets down on siome shit, then $5.00.

The psychology behind gambling with chips over real cash

We went this weekend. I had free tickets from school, but we paid the $15 for parking and bought all the food we wanted and only spent $55. We don't do the rides, though and I didn't get a chance to do any real shopping so I think $100-$150 would be plenty.

But more importantly the state fair sells the tickets and the vendors have to turn the tickets in for cash therefor they cant lie about how much made and Texas gets there share of the money.
