Our kids are old enough to really enjoy some of the exhibits as well as the rides and such now...I am looking forward to really experiencing this with them! (And they've been asking all year, "When does the Fair come again? Can we go??!??!?) :-)
I love watching my girls take in the wonders of the fair and all it has to offer!
We would love tickets for the OC Fair. My kiddos have loved it every time we have made the trip. Thanks for the giveaway offer.
Please enter us into this giveaway for tickets for the OC Fair. Thanks so much!!
Yay, the OC fair is back. We have have only been one and loved it. Now that my son is older I think he would enjoy it more. I love all the different animals they have. I know whoever you chose with have a blast.
I can't wait for the fair, rides and deep fried twinkies here we come!
yay!!! I love your giveaways!!! :) We love the fair and this year my daughter is old enough to really experience it and she is already talking about it. She loves the petting zoo and my son loves the animals too! Cant wait for the fair this year!
I look forward to watching my kids laugh and giggle on the rides, be amazed at the petting zoo...and eating the corn dogs of coarse!
This would be awesome! We never seem to get through it all in one day
Kiddos really like the rides and games. I like the exhibits and all the fried fair foods (my once a year treat)!
I look forward to the time with my mom and sister. We love to walk the fair, checking all of the stalls and each nook and cranny out. It is great family time!
I love to watch my son and his pals have a blast while I eat the corn. :)
Wow, my family loves the OC Fair!! We are most looking forward to the pig races & the giant ferris wheel! We would LOVE to win these tickets...and I promise to make good use of them if we win!
OUR FAMILY LOVES THE SKATEBOARDING COMPETITIONS. AND WE ALL LOVE THE BBQ FOODS!!! YUMMM!!!! JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT.
We live in N. CA and we plan our vacation down to S. CA so that we don't miss the OC Fair. We love the cotton candy. And now our little ones can ride the kiddie rides by themselves so they look forward to the rides (especially with the ride bracelet!). Thanks!
We are on such a tight budget right now, we are only doing free things. My almost 4yr-old daughter loves the ferris wheel and she's finally tall enough to go on one. Fair tickets just aren't in the budget, though. Thanks for the opportunity to win free tickets!
I most look forward to the food! This year, my daughter is really going to enjoy the rides.
thanks for the giveaway~

We've been going to the OC Fair every year for the past 6 years now. We have 3 beautiful young girls now ages 4 and under. Every year it's a whole different experience with each child and together with our growing family. Seeing them all enjoy the fair at different stages is a joy. We can't wait to go again....
I love to people watch! There is always lots to see!
The food!! The kids enjoy the rides and games but I go for the food.
The kids and I enjoy the animal barns, especially the baby animals. One year, we even got to ride an elephant! Great family memories!
Cotton Candy and photo booth pictures with the kids to see how much they changed over the year when we compare them!

mmmm... elephant ears. YUMMY. We look foward to taking the kids 9 and 4. Just seeing them run around telling us all the rides they want to go to is precious. We can't wait!!!!
I look forward to everything fried and the pig races. Owen's favorite part is the petting zoo.
The thing my hubby and I always look forward to is the yummy food!!!!!!!!! Now that we have children though,the thing we look forward to is seeing the excitment on our kids faces when they see all the rides and animals.
Pick us!
FOOD!!! FOOD!!! FOOD!!! My toddler loves the farm and the rides.

one thing? I don't know how to narrow it down. FUN. how about that. Pig Races. 4H. Cotton Candy. Rides. I have twin 6 year olds
Always look forward to the barbecue corn-on-the-cob! It's my favorite. We also like riding down the giant slide. It would be great to win passes. We usually wait in the huge lines the first hour it opens to save money.
We have never been to this fair, would love to check it out with our two kids. Keeping fingers crossed we win tickets....
Hi would love to go to the fair, have never been, so do't know what we would like best, but we like the "fair food" haha!
thanks
we like you on FB ;)
Thank You!
We go to the fair every year and the highlight is always the FOOD! We can be healthy all throughout the year, but on fair day, watch out fried food!
I have 3 boys and only the oldest (age 7) has been. The first time I took him to the Fair we went with my mother, his Nana, and it was a memorable time. He was 5 years old at the time and it was great seeing the Fair through his eyes. My Mom bought him a blow-up Dolphin from there and we still have it. Sadly, my Mom passed away shortly after that visit. I would love to be able to take all 3 boys. Thank you for your consideration!
We LLOOOOOVVEEEE the Fair!!! :) it's amazing how long we can spend strolling along the gardens. The kids just love to see the plants growing of the different vegetables and fruits. We usually have a garden and they compare it what we have at home. Dad and I usually do a concert or two for a night out. Who KNEW how much fun a KC and the Sunshine Band concert could be!!! Looking forward ... counting the days!!!! :)
We love looking at all the strange, but yummy foods!
Omgosh!!! I can't answer the question cuz, I've never been to the fair... (Cue the sad music)
I swear, I haven't!!! I'm gonna be the fatty Mcpatty here and say I am super excited about all the fried food they have! (:

We love all the animals. But most of all I just love the time spent with my family!

We went to the O.C. Fair for the first time last year. We took our then baby to the fun zone and learned there was a corn dog eating contest. My wife dared me to enter and promised that if I won she would enter the following year. I would like to make sure she keeps that promise! Now our son is older (18 months)and I'm a stay at home dad. I Would also love to be able to take him often during the day.
We LOVE the fair! Our kids really love the animals and we really love the bizarre food (and people watching of course). :)
I already like you on FB. :)
We like EVERYTHING about the fair. From the animals to the exhibits, to the food and the rides! SO MUCH FUN!!!
All I can say is deep fried twinkies!! I can't wait!
The hubs & I love to go & walk around. The food & exhibits are definitely something we enjoy every time.

We would love tickets to the OC Fair--We love seeing all the animals (we even watched the goat judging last time), the pig races, the vegetable judging, and the fun rides!
Would love to win the tickets! We are most looking forward to the petting zoo, my little one loves it. The fair is always tons of family fun, thanks for the chance! :0)

I'm entering for my sister who is just recently divorced and would love for her to attend the fair when she has the kids. I am excited for her to try the fried twinkie and chocolate covered bacon and for the kids to see the animals!
I love going to the OC Fair every year! I look forward to all the greasy food they have there, like the fried smores or other tasty desserts. My kids look forward to all the kiddie rides. Can't wait for this year!
I am a fan on FB too. :)

We absolutely LOVE the Fair. Our family loves to go every year! That is one of my kids highlights of the summer! I hope we win!
There's nothing we don't like about fairs! We always love the animals and the food the best, though. :-)
Thanks!

What a GREAT give away! I definitely look forward to the food! Gotta love the fried zuchinni, battered fish and chips and that corn! MMMMM...can't wait for the fair!
would love to go to the fair!
Every year I look forward to the time spent with my family exploring the harvests, barnyard, and shops. We love to look at all the photographs too!
My kids start to get so excited the minute they see the big ferris wheel being set up. We all look forward to visiting the animals, especially the pigs. Then off to enjoy some corn on the cob and some nice fruit for desert.
I would love to win these tickets. We have never taken our 1 yr old.....I love all of your contests!
What am I looking forward to the most at the fair? Well, I could say tasting the delicious BBQ corn. I also could say seeing the cute piglets that are born each year. I might even say viewing the photography exhibit for new ideas. However, the things I really look forward to seeing at the fair are the reactions from my daughter and son as they enjoy the day. I love seeing the fair through their eyes!
My favorite thing about the fair is ... hot dog on a stick. I know silly, since you can get those any time you want. I wait all year and eat as many as I want at the fair and love it! The treats aren't so bad either. If I can go everyday, that means I get a corn dog everyday. Perfection.
send me to the fair! liked on facebook too!
The Food, Food, and more Food!!!
It would be fun! The fair is tradition. Sticky fingers, eyes of wonder, pictures to remember back on.. We would love to go!!
I love the crafty stuff... the quilts and needle work!
We look forward to all the yummy JUNK FOOD! It's an annual treat! Funnel Cake. Yum!
I look forward to all of that fried food!!!!
i follow the ocfair on twitter
I know this is weird, but my favorite thing at the fair is looking at the table setting competitions! I love looking at how creative people can be with something as mundane as a table!
I'm looking forward to my two boys enjoying the same things I did when I was younger... many moons ago. Grilled Corn on the cobb..(of Course)
Tasti Chips!!!
We love going to the fair for almost everything from the live animals and baby animals to the ice cold lemonade from Hotdog on a Stick. Can't wait for it to start!
The FOOD!!! I have a 2 1/2 yr old and 6 yr old, so this year should be really fun to take them to the fair.
Can't wait to go back for the elephant ride. Last year my 3 yr old was too small for it and I've heard about it ALL year long!
2nd comment for "liking" you on facebook. Pick me!
What do I like most about the OC Fair? Well, I could say that I like eating the delicious BBQ corn. Or, I could say I like watching the baby piglets that have just been born. I also might say that I like viewing the photos in the photography exhibit. However, the best part of the fair is seeing my kids' faces as they enjoy the day!
I like you very much on fb.

I love the fair and can't wait to go this year!!! My 14 year old has even promised me that he'd try the fried butter (even though when i told him about it, he gagged).. should be fun!!

My older son's birthday is in early August and it has become a tradition to take him to the fair for his birthday.
I am looking forward to seeing my son's squished penny collection at the fair. He is 9 years old this year, so it was the first time he could enter a collection!
Oh wow, I have 2 kiddos, 6 & 2 & 1/2 and my oldest is a total thrill seeker. I get the biggest laugh watching her on the rides and hearing her yell ALL the way down the big Slides! It's been 2 yrs since our last visit and sounds like some great family fun!
Deep fried ANYTHING on a stick!
Last year, my then 4 year old son won a basketball for himself and one for his twin sister. Great memories.
My family would love the tickets for the OC Fair. Little one is now old enough to participate more this year. Our family favorite is the pig race. The smiles and claps from the little one is priceless.
My daughter loves the animals and the exhibits. I am challenging her to enter something in the fair for next year.
Yay! Love the fair. Animals, food, you name it-it is all fun!
Never been so looking forward to everything!
This will be my lil girls first time to the fair. I think she will enjoy the petting zoo the most. The teenagers will love the girls.

OMG, that is SOOO hard....one thing? I love the feeling in the air from the fair (it just feels different!), the cinnamon rolls, the shaved ice, the hot tubs every year we drool over them and want to buy one), the animals...the list goes on. We've been going for 25 years now, missing only a year or two here and there!! My 12 year old loves it every bit as much as his older brother did!!
I can't wait to see my kids faces light up the second they see all the giant rides. They get soooooo excited!
I have not been to the fair in years and would love to experience it again with my two year old. Thanks for the opportunity!!
I always look foward to seeing the livestock. Kids are always amazed at how huge hogs really get!
My fam loves the Fair! Nothing better than awesome rides and lots of fried food that is so bad for you, yet so delicious you don't care!

Our family has never been to the OC fair. My husband and I grew up in LA and a few years ago moved closer to the OC. We're never been to the fair, but have heard great things about it. Our 3 and 6 year olds love the LA county fair and we would look forward to enjoying the OC fair. The kids really enjoy seeing animals and getting on the rides. We enjoy seeing the smiles on their faces.
My daughter loves the petting zoo. We try to go every year.
NEVER BEEN TO THE FAIR BUT THIS WILL BE A GREAT THING TO EXPERINCE WITH MY GRANDKIDS THANK YOU
My favorite part of the fair is the animals. My kids love to see all the different animals and watch pig races. It would be terrific for our family to go again this year.
What a great prize....we love the fair and would love to have season passes! It will be fun to show the kids what I enjoyed as a kid.
We love going to the fair. My favorite is cotton candy and chocolate covered bacon wasn't too bad, although it needed more bacon and less chocolate. My daughter loves the pigs!
