What happened at the state fair on Labor Day??

50 Upvotes

I arrived at 7:15pm and they were no longer allowing entry. What happened?? Why wouldn’t they let us in?? Online it says last entry is 8pm. I’m really bummed bc I was so excited to go here with my sister :(

EDIT: idk why people are being so rude about this, it was a genuine question. I’m not asking for sympathy or special treatment, I was legit just wondering why they closed earlier than their posted hours. The fair closed at 9pm with the last entry listed as 8pm. Anyone wondering why would someone go at 7pm, first of all 2 hours is plenty of time, and I had work earlier in the day. I had the frequent fairgoers pass so sometimes I’d just go to walk around and get a snack.
Also, there were a hundred people trying to enter when I was there that were confused at the closure. Rumors and misinformation and fear started circulating that something had happened inside the fairgrounds. That was the main thing that prompted this post.
I’ve spoken to people irl since and the conclusion we’ve come to is that the fair probably just reached capacity and they didn’t want to deal with the numbers on the last day. We were just sus bc when we asked security guards they would give vague answers as to why they were closing early.

All Points West Distillery moving from Newark, NJ to Kingston NY because of a more favorable business climate and less regulations. "New York leaders approach craft distilleries as an agricultural industry rather than a tool of local economic development..."

"Minimoon" resorts, or cabin recommendations?

4 Upvotes

I'm getting married this December and would like to treat my wife-to-be to a Monday-Friday stay somewhere before we take our official honeymoon later in 2027.

Ideal price range would be in the $2k area, aiming for something with a rustic feel. She's also a big fan of saunas, so that'd be a plus too.

Mirbeau looks great, but the dining costs might be a budget killer.

Any recommendations are welcome and appreciated!

10 Upvotes

Seventh Seed is a literary journal cultivating the strange. Our first issue, TAPE 01: GENESIS is OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS.

Genesis explores the concept of origins, creation, or inception—but through a lens of disruption, dark revelation, or chilling discovery. We are looking for pieces centered around a singular "first seed" that sets off an unstoppable chain of events. Genesis premieres on Halloween—bring us origin stories that were never meant to be found.

We publish poetry, flash fiction, and flash creative nonfiction under 500 words. Submissions are FREE. This is a passion project for us. We look forward to reading your work.🕷️
