As a Minnesotan who has gone every year of my 40 years (besides Covid closing) I hope you enjoyed the GREATEST fair in America! The food alone is next level. Cheers to MN!
It used to be THE THING in high school in the late 90’s to ride the Ye old Mill. I’ve forgotten what it looks like. So Thank You for that fond memory! 🥰
It does look like a lot of fun. I live in Fresno California, and they don't have anything that compares at the "Big Fresno Fair!" I'm not sure what they offer at the state fair in Sacramento, but I doubt it's anything like that. It looks like fun.
@@dianewilson5516 The state fairs are bigger and better than regular Town/ city fairs ,Sacramento state fair is huge tons of games/ rides and I use 2 live there & in Minnesota and both are about the same great rides,different food 2 try ,petting zoos ,arts,crafts ect,worth the trip from Fresno 2 the state fair plus the well known music artist who preform each night..Also the big water park is open during the fair..Both are great places
I absolutely love the MN State Fair. It’s one of the best fairs I’ve ever been to., and I’m a Texan. The big tub of chocolate chip cookies , and fresh milk are my favorite treats. Thank you for the laughs at 34:00 btw
Literally thank you so much for this, I live there and I just never did all those rides and things, now I got to see them through your eyes! After seeing them, I’m pleased with my decision to avoid them!! 😂 thrilled to see it however! Great video!!!
Most of us locals do the park and ride. It's free and easier to get there. 😉 We go at least twice every year. That way a nice view of the fair. Thank you!
At first it used to be fun, vicariously living through you while you go on these adventures. Now it’s turned to envy, because nothing can replace actually being there to experience it with your own eyes. Keep ‘‘em coming Carpet Bagger👍(inspiration)
Welcome to Minnesota, Jacob! It looks like you had fun at our state fair. It's pretty well known for all the various foods, so I'm glad you managed to nosh on some MN specialties!
Welcome to MN state fair, I will be there shortly so it's so fun to see an outside touring the fair. I have been told our fair is 2nd place only due to it's limited run time (2 weeks) as TX Fair is open much longer.
Yeah most years Texas has higher total visit count but they run 20 days rather than 12 while Minnesota usually has the single day visit records so it’s all about how you count.
Please ignore my last comment. there is absolutely nothing wrong with the video nor the channel. I adore this channel and I'd never say anything bad about it. please forgive me, I don't always think things through. I swear I'm not a bad person, at least I try not to be. this is an awesome channel, I have been watching it for years. it has even carried me through when I was sick. you rock mr carpetbagger.
I saw The Carpetbagger there that night. Friday the 26th. I was walking past him with a couple buddies as he was wrapping up the vlog and I said hello. You covered all the stuff I didn't get to. I might go back to the fair this weekend and try those cheese curd tacos. Great video!
Glad to see you made it up to my stomping grounds! I hope you got a chance to check out Minnesota's Largest Candy Store while you were here. It'd make a great video on it's own!
The Cheese Curd Tacos looked inviting. Minnesota Fair looked to be a really fun day out with the family. Something for everyone to enjoy. Surprised you actually got on the Kamikazi. You're so much fun.
As a Brit, I am SO jealous of American State Fairs. We have fun fairs here in the UK, but they are TINY compared to this - we literally get about 10 small rides and a couple of food vans and that's IT 😂
I agree with you that the Minnesota State Fair is way more intense than Texas, the fairs are ranked by attendance and the Texas SF is open for almost 2 months and Minnesota SF is only 2 weeks so there is no comparison. I was there once and people were lining up to get in at 7AM and it was crowded by 9...
BWAHAHAHA! Oh Jacob..... "I've decided to step outside of my comfort zone.." (6 minutes later) "Oh No! What have I done here? What terrible decision have I made?" I laugh hysterics every time.
40:07 Btw I've Talked To That Freddy Krueger Actor And He Was Actually Really Nice....They Usually Had A Jack Sparrow Actor Too, But He Wasn't There That Year
Welcome to Minnesota! Be glad that you went on a weekday and not a weekend, or you wouldn't have been able to see the walkways from that sky ride, it would be solid people. We always take a day off of work and go during the week when you can actually walk around without shoving people all day lol. What you see here is not even busy at the fair.
Awesome video! We were there with the kiddos yesterday for about 5 hrs and still missed so much stuff! Thanks for the video, it shows me what we should do/see next year!
Jacob, Tulsa has a 4-seater Skyride made by the same company, but the Tulsa Fairgrounds authority wants to tear it down!! Can you cover this story and help Tulsa Save Our Skyride? I have lots of links for more information or just search Tulsa Skyride. I think you'd love it, and we want to make it a historical landmark.
That New York themed fun house is not safe for people with poor balance or people who are claustrophobic. LOL That fair looks so much fun though! Ye Old Mill is quite the attraction with a bit of a historic reputation. ♡
I'm glad you came by, I hope you got to get plenty of food and see more of the none-ride stuff before leaving! I really wanna try those cheese curd tacos now...
Glad you had fun, wow the fair is winding down again... the end of the state fair officially is the end of summer for us Minnesotans... apple and October fests await!
Thanks Jacob and I love your videos because they're so full of life, vivid colour and positivity ☀️ brilliant way to end my day. Thanks again and best wishes ❤️
I wonder how many will see the post. I remember the first time I rode the kamikaze. I was having fun. Then when it was getting close to being upside down I got a little nervous and then when both of them were upside down side to side. I turned my head to check the other ride car. I then burst out laughing. When I saw a young adult lady with her pony tail hanging down. I could not stop laughing for a bit. On the plus side I was no longer nervous and enjoyed the rest of the ride.😁
Thank you so much Jacob for taking us around the Fair🎉 I really love to go on the Journey through the wonderfull US with you every Time ❤ Wish I could be there too 😢
That is one of the most gut wrenching amusement park rides anywhere. You wouldn't catch me on that ride for a million bucks. Good job taking one for the vlog!
Looks like a great fair. I love the landscaping and trees everywhere. I'm heading to the Big E in Massachusetts this weekend. It's a 5 state fair. All the new england states
I have friends in Cologne Minnesota, I am from Cologne Germany. I visited them 6 years ago, Minnesota is great, lovely openminded people ;) and of course the cheese curds are brilliant!
I love the Minnesota state fair I grew up in Minnesota but moved to Michigan in 2006 and make back almost every year for the fair the last fair I missed (I'm not counting the year covid shut it down) was 2011 I had also missed 2009 and 2010 (not my choice) but had gone every year before that
Those stairs were wild! You were brave! ;) Looks like a great fair!!! Yes! A cool looking dark ride I won’t be riding the Kamakazee anytime soon! Nope!

Want to go someday. Looks awesome. Love the trees throughout the fair grounds
That tunnel of love part is the funniest thing I've seen since the camel bite!LOL! Love you Jacob!
I’ve always heard about those big thought they were a thing of the past lol
I've been in the ol mill many times and you weren't alone in there everyone who watches and loves you were in there with you
When Jacob went on the Kamikaze, I laughed until I hurt myself!! Omg I’m dying here!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@MyCre8tiveUserName 🤣
Laughed til I cried
Same!! It's my second favorite ride at the fair so when he went on it I got really happy too lol
Yup!!!!!😂😂😂😂
37:57 That's Bullwinkle J. Moose dressed as Dudley Do-Right both created by Jay Ward in 1959.
I never thought I would see you ride a ride like the kamikazi. Thanks Jacob!
I think I saw him cry!

He has all the joy and amazement of a little child.
I would totally go to an attraction with CB.

I was quite surprised you rode that tide toward the end..you really took one for the team this time! Thanks for the video!
Welcome to Minnesota, Jacob! It looks like you had fun at our state fair. It's pretty well known for all the various foods, so I'm glad you managed to nosh on some MN specialties!
You finally visited here and I missed you! It's ok though! Glad you came and enjoyed the Great Minnesota Get Together. 🙂
That’s a new one…the most awkward tunnel of love 💕😂
I thought I heard someone say “watch it buster, keep your hands to yourself!” 😅
Wow I'm from Minnesota! I love a hour from the state fair! Seriously the best fair ever
Love going to the Minnesota State Fair!! Yeah to experience the whole thing you need to visit more than one day, it's overwhelming!!!
Man, you really put the work in on this video Jacob. Can’t believe that you kept your glasses on while on the kamikaze. Well done.
I thought he was going to loose them for sure!
That last fun house was quite the challenge! Thanks Jacob, you the Man!
I love how you called the zipper “metal caskets” LOL that’s what they are exactly! Love the video!

The Kansas State Fair also features an Old Mill dark ride from the 1910's.
That old coat had your HAT !!! It’s you in the future !! A guy in a bucket it was bald Oscar the Grouch lol!!!
Minnesota State Fair is the Best State Fair.
Change my mind!!😉😊
Oh my goodness I cried laughing when you were on the that one ride with the girls hair flopping on your face lol 🤣🤣🤣
That's Awesome Jacob! I'm glad you got to experience, "The Great Minnesota Get Together!"
I Hope you enjoyed our great Minnesota Get Together!
You should bring Jen with you next time!
And have some Sweet Martha’s cookies too!🍪
The Cheese Curd Tacos looked inviting. Minnesota Fair looked to be a really fun day out with the family. Something for everyone to enjoy. Surprised you actually got on the Kamikazi. You're so much fun.
Aw, you missed the Dairy Princesses heads carved out of butter! That's the best part.
And B U T T E R P E O P L E. But you can't eat those!
As a Brit, I am SO jealous of American State Fairs. We have fun fairs here in the UK, but they are TINY compared to this - we literally get about 10 small rides and a couple of food vans and that's IT 😂
I’m sorry
You have the absolute best reactions to roller coasters. Glad you enjoyed the fair!
This by far the best one so far. Love the crowds and all the rides you shared except that one that goes over head.
Hope you enjoyed Minnesota! Best state fair hands down!!
Tacos looked AMAZING N YUMMY!
Your narration of ye old mill was classic
That taco looked really amazing🌮
Omg so hilarious!!! I loved when you rode the kamikaze!!😂😂😂😂

👍👍👍👍👍👍 State Fairs are so fun to go to. I'm from WV and our State Fair is located in Lewisburg, WV.
MN State Fair is the last celebration of summer before the brutal winter entraps all in the area lol
Thank you to come to the Minnesota State Fair
BWAHAHAHA! Oh Jacob..... "I've decided to step outside of my comfort zone.." (6 minutes later) "Oh No! What have I done here? What terrible decision have I made?" I laugh hysterics every time.
LMAO at you riding the ride, “I’m upside down”😂😂😂😂
Ive Been Going To The Minnesota State Fair All My Life
40:07 Btw I've Talked To That Freddy Krueger Actor And He Was Actually Really Nice....They Usually Had A Jack Sparrow Actor Too, But He Wasn't There That Year
I knew you were coming, I was there on Tuesday. I kept an eye open, I missed you by a day.
The Zipper is my favorite carnival ride. Come on Jacob !!! 😂
You need to go more than once- The Llama costume contest is worth the price of admission alone!
carpet bagger that was great you on the rides im from minnesota thanks for coming to minnesota have fun here

I couldn't go this year coz no one would go with me. I'm so glad you made and posted this video. It really helped my depression
This video gave me a good giggle
Awesome fair best ever thanks for sharing your time here see you tomorrow enjoyed it so much 🙂😘😌🙂
Awesome video! We were there with the kiddos yesterday for about 5 hrs and still missed so much stuff! Thanks for the video, it shows me what we should do/see next year!
Great video! It’s always fun to watch Jacob on scary rides 😂
The South Dakota State fair is happening now too today through monday
*Never* go on the Kamikaze again. You’ve earned your cred! 😂😭😂
we Just missed each other! I fell in love with your vids after your visit to Valley Fair a while ago and went to the fair just yesterday!
The spooky old coat and hat in the haunted castle was hilarious.
Jacob, Tulsa has a 4-seater Skyride made by the same company, but the Tulsa Fairgrounds authority wants to tear it down!! Can you cover this story and help Tulsa Save Our Skyride?

South Carolina's Upper State Fair starts tomorrow in my hometown of Easley South Carolina. You should come!
That New York themed fun house is not safe for people with poor balance or people who are claustrophobic. LOL
That fair looks so much fun though! Ye Old Mill is quite the attraction with a bit of a historic reputation. ♡
The three county Fair opens up tomorrow in Northampton Massachusetts which is the oldest county Fair in the US.
I enjoy your videos so much! They are always fun.
I am in MN and went to the fair and I love our state fair I look forward to it every year! Glad to see you enjoyed our fair.
I'm glad you came by, I hope you got to get plenty of food and see more of the none-ride stuff before leaving! I really wanna try those cheese curd tacos now...
Good for you for riding that scary ride and stepping out of your comfort zone. I couldn't have done it.
I wish I could see the kids reaction that sat next to Jacob on the kamikaze ride hahahaha
Loved it. 32:50 on - best part. Made me laugh so hard......Love your vids, my friend. Take care.
Tom Thumb donuts are my absolute favorite fair food !
My Birthday Sept 10th.

The scarecrow with the caption "Tra LA La" I believe is Captain Underpants. A children's series of books.
That New York Fun House looks so cool! I want to go through it!
Great video. The Utah State Fair is September 8-18 2022.
Freddy Krueger looked like he had been through it😂
That is one of the most gut wrenching amusement park rides anywhere. You wouldn't catch me on that ride for a million bucks. Good job taking one for the vlog!
You have to hit up the Erie County Fair next year, its o e of the largest fairs in the U.S. as well
Looks like a great fair. I love the landscaping and trees everywhere. I'm heading to the Big E in Massachusetts this weekend. It's a 5 state fair. All the new england states
