The Big E discussion thread

I get out of work early Tuesdays and can be at the fair by the cheaper entry time of 4pm since I can do alot at that time. If anyone wants to meet up let me know I'm gonna try going this coming Tuesday the 17th!

The North American Midway Company added a new ride, so it is at the Big E this year. I'm not exactly sure what it is called,but I know it is called the spin doctor in rct3. It is named Mach3 at the Big E.

It's one of those big a$$ rolloplane kinda rides. Forgot the name but I'll get a pic of it, my family said it was crazy

It's a Sky scraper ride. SFGAdv had one at one point they may still have it. It's generally found at FEC's with 4 seats it's always and up-charge attraction.

I am going to the big E tomorrow and all I have heard so far is tons of food. Any suggestions of what to get and other things to do there in one day?

When you get there you'll probably get food. After that you're gonna want to go check out the food. Take a little break in the day by going to get food. When the sun starts to set, that's prime time to go get food. After dark you'll definitely want to go get food too. That time period provides some great food.

But seriously.
-State buildings (yes they all have a ton of food)
-Midway (opens a little later than the rest of the Big E
-Eat til you can't anymore.
-Go to the Circus.

Other than that, it's a lot of vendors trying to sell you products, demos, samples, etc.

^ its everything Dan said above and dont forget the kettle corn at the New Hampshire building. Others have kettle corn, but New Hampshire has the longest line for a reason

Get on Mega Drop (you'll never think Scream is great ever again) and get a pot roast sundae. Mashed potatoes, pot roast, gravy, and corn. It's heaven...

Didn't make it this year cause $ was tight but hopefully next year. The Creampuffs are sinfully good, so are porkchop sandwiches. Maybe next time try one of those London Broil Sandwiches. had some Tempura Veggies once, fried Mushrooms too. Most times I nibble my way across the Fair. Beignets are good too. Breakfast at Firehouse or Heroes and Legends Café, Irish Beer isn't too bad at all. Chicken Dinners at Lions Club if with Mom And Dad. All in all, Big E is the best fair ever, the only other attraction in area other than SFNE that I Love!

Riders say they had to be rescued from a roller coaster at the Big E Monday.

^The article says it is the Bullet Train but I am pretty sure that is the Blitzer Coaster unless they changed the name or the pic is not the ride that had the problem.

I was there Friday night and Sunday. Surprisingly it was pretty dead.

Did you see grand funk railroad on Friday night?

sadly, no. I left before they went on. I really wanted to see Bruce Kulick too

I am so old that I once saw Grand Funk practice , in a garage, around 1968 in Flint, MI. LOL
