Big old Dodge van, carpet, back seat bed and all, bought just for the summer and that trip. Getting a window shot out while driving through Memphis. Hotel not as advertised (pool not finished, high prices!) The moonshiner demonstrating at the Fair. All in all, a trip I wouldn’t have missed for the world!

All I really remember about the fair was the giant Rubik’s Cube (which is apparently still there), seeing the Clydesdale horses, and walking around in the rain. My dad recently handed down to me a six-pack of World’s Fair beer …

Clearly somebody saw some potential to the place.

We always stay at the Chateau on the Lake. I despise staying anywhere on the strip. Traffic sucks and as many times as I have been here in my youth it’s nice to get away from the crowds. I can’t believe you’re from Oklahoma and were never dragged here like me.
