Fair Adds Fees, Beer Walkabouts

In the Coeur d'Alene Press today, Maureen Dolan reports that the North Idaho Fair & Rodeo has made two significant changes to raise more money. For the first time, the fair will charge a $5 admission fee to the grandstands for the rodeo, motocross and demolition derby events. Also, the fair will allow visitors to walk about the grounds carrying beer. More here.

Question: Do you approve of the change by North Idaho Fair officials to charge $5 for admission to the grandstands for events -- and to allow visitors to walk around the fairgrounds w/beer?
