Ann Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 5 minutes ago, KD in CA said: Sweet! They must be going back and forth across NYS because they will be at Jam at the Ridge (LeRoy, NY) on July 31st. I am not a fan, I only know this because we drove by there today and Hubby exclaimed loudly about it... to which I said, "Oh darn honey, we are OOT!" Ok, not exactly what I said, but that's the (nicer) drift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snafu Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) Has anyone seen Cuomo there running the tilt-o-whirl ride or mucking out the cow stalls (or grabbing at their udders)? Edited August 26, 2021 by snafu 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only for inside the buildings. If you stay outside, you're fine. On 8/26/2021 at 8:18 PM, Foxx said: I think I heard on the radio yesterday that the attendance is the lowest recorded. Saturday was the highest so far, at about 56,000. Which would be low for a normal year.
