the last carnival I went to in my town earlier this year, wasn't the best, the kiddos liked it, I just wanted to go for the funnel cakes, but the way some of the young ladies were dressed I was just shocked my mother wouldn't dare let me walk out the house the way they were.

I haven't been to a carnival in years.  That is because, when it is hot, I see no reason to leave the solace of my nice cool home.  I am under the air conditioner and it keeps me cool. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :rainbow: :rose:

I do not like carnivals most of the punk kids hang out there.

I rarely do carnivals. A lot of the people that run them look like they are battling an addiction or on the run from the law  :o ...

Where I live we have lots of fairs which are sponsored by the cites/counties where they're held - ie. LA County Fair, Orange County Fair, etc... I get my "fix" at these types of events rather than at a traveling carnival.

Carnival season is upon us! Well, at least in New Jersey! There are several carnivals coming up in the next few weeks and months, and I plan on attending lots of them! I don't know what it is about them, maybe it's because me and my husband used to go them often when we were dating, but I just love carnivals. I enjoy the food and games. So what about you? Do you have lots of carnivals where you live? And do you enjoy them as much as I do?
Love them. Summer is always a great time for festivals. I plan to attend as many as I can. Enjoy life and all it has to offer. It is way too short. Take time to smell the roses.

I love carnivals !

When I was younger I used to go very often, but now as we get older  :confused1: my husband gets tired of walking and then all that traffic and worst of all to find a safe parking space ! ::)

With a new truck that is a no no for us at the moment. :(

We go to the church carnival every year. It is kind of expensive and a little seedy but we have a good time, The kids like the ride and I like the food.

Sometime only.  But now when I get older, I think it not fun to go anymore.  But still go sometime for food.  They have difference kind of food there for you to try.

When I was younger I loved them I'd get so excited when I'd pass by a carnival.  I would get so happy.

When I was younger I worked on a carnival I thought it was a lot of fun for work but it's still a fun I enjoyed it a lot. So I think Carl was more fun all low they are very expensive now days there still a lot of fun. If not there so I'm going to take my mother and dad to New Orleans is not new orients to Orlando Florida. My sister is going to she wants to go to Harry Potter land. I hope my folks it will enjoy it as much as by sister will.

I used to go to carnivals when I was stationed in Germany. I had a lot of fun, especially during Octoberfest.

I loved them as a kid but no so much now.  I find them dirty and a rip off now (especially the games).
Have a wonderful day!

I think I like the actual concept of carnivals more than I like the carnivals themselves if that makes sense. I do love funnel cakes and cotton candy and other terrible foods.
