West Tennesseeans enjoy last night of Gibson County fair

TRENTON, Tenn. — West Tennesseans enjoyed the last night of the Gibson County fair Saturday.

“We’re trying to get a little more in on it this time since we came late last time,” said fair goer Paul Ragsdale.

Ragsdale and his family were some of many out enjoying the last day of the Gibson County fair.

Many were there for the rides.

“We’ve mostly been on just the kiddie rides and the carousel with them, but I have two older kids, 10 and 12, who’ve enjoyed the big rides,” said fair goer Heather Peden.

“I want to go on the swing. It goes around and around,” said fair goer Savannah Hubbard.

The fair brought out many families and groups of friends from around West Tennessee.

“I was at home, and I invited him to my house, and he said we should go,” said fair goer William Loston.

Fair goers shared their favorite parts of their experience.

“The lemonade,” Ragsdale said. “It’s pretty hot right now.”

“Basically, just watching them have a good time, squeal, and put their hands up while riding the rides,” Peden said.

“The slide. Yeah, definitely the slide,” said fair goers Kayshawn White and M’Kayelye Hodgkins.

Everyone made the most out of their last night.

“We came early today at four when it opened, and we’re gonna stay until it closes,” Peden said.

Fair goers also enjoyed a demolition derby as part of the final night.
