Another reason I hate August. The damned State Fair of West Virginia starts in less than two weeks. Animals, congestion, filth, people in campers, bad food, you name it.

I hate Fair week. All the restaurants raise their prices to gouge the tourists. My Starbucks coffee will cost me $10 if I even dare to venture out. The place is not even really West Virginia’s Fair. It is privately owned and the cartel of landowners who control it make a killing.
 
I never have been to the WV State fair. The NC State fair is in October. Been to it a few times but haven't been in 10 years or so
 
In my opinion, you aren’t missing much, but some people plan their whole year around this 10 day event. They have had some decent grandstand shows in the past, I just hate the crowds and congestion.
 
Ive gone two times, both times to see an artist that was playing. The fair itself didn't really impress me
