        It’s an awful layout for a poorly planned fair.

        Nobody wants to stand in the open fields during a heatwave with nothing to do. Those fields are huge too, they fit thousands of people. So the pictures were always going to be pathetic. No matter what.

        That the booths are also just glorified stamp collecting with empty chairs, the entertainment sucks, and nobody wants to be affiliated is the cherry on top of the shit cake though. You can’t even get some good photos with paid extras inside.

        I’m willing to bet hotels cost too much and they didn’t advertise either. Probably whoever organized it spent all their money on those ridiculous tents and pocketed the rest (or cut a deal with the tent vendor, like Parks and Rec)

        Even before the huge spikes in costs of hardware, I always thought of things being permanent on the 'net is a rather interesting one, given I’ve seen entire communities taken offline, never to be seen again. Maybe alphabet agencies or the people that bought up defunct companies have them, but I doubt even that.
