8. This was supposed to be a "50-state showcase" event

in the spirit of a "state fair" and it seems those states that did participate had their tourism groups handle it. The rest knew the thing was hijacked and was a farce, and aren't participating.

I know the closest thing to a "state fair" here in PA is the Farm Show and that is in January. It's usually the County Fairs that mimic the traditional "state fairs".
