I dunno..a carnival usually has rides like the ferris wheels and stuff..I think it would be considered a type of fair...cause there can be an art fair, a medival fair, etc...

 

I know the answer to that question...me and my friends had a little arguement over that haha.


Carnivals usually travel around to different locations, and fairs stay in one place.

 

But the Gray TN Fair only comes once a year to Gray. So that can't be true.

I pulled something in my back in weight lifting....

 

dude, but does the Gray TN fair show up in other places the rest of the year?

 

....you just proved your statement wrong..unless there is another place named the same thing.

 

Im pretty sure it does go to other places. Like 95% possitive.

 

we have a couple carnivals around here every year that don't travel anywhere

 

Maybe it was the other way around

 

I got this off of infoplease.com I love that site lol..

Anyhow, I just got back from seein Foghat at a Fair/Carnival or whatever. For those of you who dont know who Foghat is, remember the movie "Dazed and Confused"? and that song "Slowride".

 

didn't watch that movie either.

So I take it from the definition that a "fair" is home-based, whereas the "carnival" is the actual travelling type.

WTF am I debating about this for I don't even go to either ahaha

 

haha But i guess this is one of the things Good Times is about. Even if its pointless. Ok, New topic. Whats with all the hurricanes? It seems like there is allways one after another. Kinda wierd.

 

carnies scare me, they smell like cabbage

 

Shut up Outlander/Autin Powers. We allways give them a hard time when they come to town.

 

they got little hands
