This is a well known carnival group, there are certain carnival features that are semi-permanent installations on the fairgrounds like electric plugins, the food vendors have food trucks and their own licenses. We know the food will be fried things on a stick, BBQ, elote, cotton candy, lemonade--it's always the same. Also ridiculously expensive. The carnival owners are responsible for their equipment safety. That said, it is still an odd thing to suddenly throw out.
Look up the past, it proves future. Here's a tidbit from a 2018 blurb about the 2018 state fair. Notice that it is the same carnival group in the laat paragraph.
Discounts, new foods/rides, concerts
There are new shows, exhibits, rides and, of course, calorie-packed foods to devour this year. Here is your guide to all of it, including how to save money on admission and parking, as well as who's performing and when.
NEW SHOWS
King Tut & The Egyptian Treasures: The exhibition features artifacts from the tombs of King Tutankhamun, Ramses II, Nefertari, Tuthmosis III, Alexander the Great and Cleopatra VII. Admission is $5.
Tapigami: View flowers, animals, jewelry and scaled cities all made from Scotch tape. It’s an exhibition from California artist Danny Scheible. The show is located in the Shopping Pavilion and is included with fair admission.
Megasaurus: A new attraction this year, the Megasaurus will be part of the All-Star Freestyle Mania and Thrill Show at The GrandStands. The robotic dinosaur is 50 feet tall and 30 feet along, according to the fair's website. Fans will see it transform from a vehicle into a robotic dinosaur and rip a car in half. The show runs Oct. 12-14.
The All-Star Monster Trucks Show will take place Oct. 26-28 at the Grandstands.
NEW FOOD
Unicorn Cotton Candy: Pink cotton candy with a Unicorn horn lollipop and topped with sprinkles.
Unicorn Nitro Pop: Nitrogen-infused candy popcorn surrounded by cotton candy and topped with Fruity Pebbles cereal and a lollipop.
Unicorn Float: Blue raspberry soda topped with whipped cream, sprinkles and cotton candy.
Orange Dream Float: Orange soda topped with whipped cream, sprinkles, sour orange slice candies, and orange cotton candy.
Mermaid Float: Blue coconut and lime soda topped with whipped cream, sprinkles, sour candy strips, LIfe Savers gummy candy, and sour green apple cotton candy.
Totally Baked Cookie Joint: A new stop along the Midway, Totally Baked will have a literal bucket of fresh-baked cookies for sale, ice cream cookie sandwiches, and the "Big Skillet," a large chocolate chip cookie topped with vanilla ice cream.
Get Fried: Another new stand on the Midway, Ray Cammack Shows say this stand will have Fruity Pebbles shrimp on-a-stick, chicken and beef kabobs, and cheese fries.
Still can’t find anything on Lemons (2), or Clown the ride, or VW bugs the ride. But I also am away from my computer/on mobile so I haven’t been able to dig too much.
The fact they pushed this up from October with no heads up and the council approved it with only 24 hours notice, no permit, no usual paperwork should at least keep people on alert.
I wonder if Lemons means lemonade stands, as opposed to beer or coke stands. They also usually have different noshes, so if you want carmelcorn, it's at the lemonade stand. VW Bugs sound like a bumper car for kids. These carnivals attract families with little kids and youths who want to drink beer and show how they can take the more terrifying rides. The hours and attractions aren't much for the older crowd. The part that still bothers me the most is the free parking. That seems like an invite to the rowdier crowd, plus the arena parking company is usually pretty ruthless about collecting for every event.
Where did you see that? In the full carnival setup there is a huge ferris wheel, about 80 feet, a medium one which is the most popular, about 40 feet, and a kiddie one which might be 16 feet and misreported as inches.. Obviously the first one is not a quick setup plus it is the ride with the most problems and is not always running even during the fair. There may well be basketball courts set up, there are three exhibition buildings which are big enough next to the ride area. There is a popular carny game of shooting hoops though, along with pitching softballs at rings, shooting at moving ducks, fishing for tokens, and such money pits.
I think that site has terrible design. I read some and what I thought to be the asterisk sign but it turned out to be the pound sign. Had to highlight it, copy and paste into text editor and it was showing the # sign rather than *.
Very terrible use of fonts.
But yeah I do agree, I saw it as " 16" wheel " due to the poor implementation of the font style.
You got downvoted for keeping it real. Looks like either our short bus friends are in the house today or the shills are hard at it making us look like morons.
I've been to that fairgrounds for so many events in the 49 years I've lived in the neighborhood... But they want to be suspicious and whenever there is an outrage post, anyone who refuses to set their hair on fire gets downvoted.

You need to look closer at the food and rides.
A 16 inch Ferris wheel? Basketball 1? Basketball 2?
Lemons (2)? Fried A Fair appears on the San Diego Fair website, at least.
None of this is legit.
