This is the day Big Tex stands up at the State Fair of Texas, a week ahead of the 2021 run.
"We are one week from opening the 2021 State Fair Texas," says fair spokesperson Karissa Condoianis. "It means more I think than it has in many years because we weren't able to host a full State Fair of Texas last year."
The 2021 State Fair of Texas kicks off a week from today, opening its 24-day run with a special Opening Day discount. Bring two jars of peanut butter for a $10 admission on Friday September 24th.
Last year, the Fair was canceled because of the Coronavirus, but this year organizers expect the event to be as big as ever.
"This is just an iconic opportunity, because we get to share this great opening with him after COVID," one woman says. "It's a tradition, it's so exciting."
