Right now the San Diego County Fairs in
the midst of its second week bringing food,
fun and rides to everyone in the county.
Our crews have been out working for you,
showing you the prices of the fair food,
giving you a look at the games to try and
our Sean Styles is out there this week
with a live Cooking with Style segment.
Today we continue the fun out at the fair.
Great way to start the show.
Welcome to the four.
I'm Heather Meyers.
I'm Marcella Lee here in studio for
our Carlo Chicato because he is out on
assignment at the Delmar fairgrounds.
Suffering there as you can see.
Carlo, what's going on out there
with you and your icy
I'm here at the County Fair,
as you mentioned at ourcbs8.com booth.
We're working for you in the community.
So we're out here.
We want to hear from you.
I'm here today.
We're giving away some cool swag.
We are on Coors Light Ave.
The Coors Light stage is just down there.
Big fans are right here.
The hypnotist is going to be on on the
big Coors Light stage in a little while.
We're just off of the Avenue of the Palms.
It's the main gate.
O'Brien Gate leads down palm of the avenue.
You'll see it is a little bit crowded
today and not as crowded as last year.
Quite untold.
close on track,
but we know it's been a little
cloudy to start the year,
although I'm getting a little sun right now.
And of course you know what's
the fair without some food.
I'm starting
early We will get that big Turkey leg.
Got the Turkey leg slash
pointer I have I see that I got over there.
Yeah the apple tower you got some mini
Donuts. We're going to kind of the big
section in the middle where they have
careful with the Turkey leg you
can take someone's eye out.
The Turkey. Well, I'm.
I'm going to take a bite out of it,
but you got a feel.
We're walking down.
You see the big rides down there.
We got some great new ones.
One thing this year,
Wednesdays and Thursdays,
you can get a ride for one price ticket.
That's the bargain.
The teenagers are going to be
big on that one, I believe,
because the adults like me are
not going to be big fans. My
teenager is there right now, Carlo.
Maybe that's why they went today.
Kays and I just had a high five. I saw him.
That's so sweet.
He was walking by with his buddies.
You can see it's again,
it's not super crowded today,
but we are on track to be close
to what we were last year.
This is kind of the big courtyard.
There was somebody on a big unicycle earlier.
We had a comedy show.
The crowd was gathered,
people having a great time.
We got chicken Charlie's behind the camera.
We got fish and chips.
We got all the rides down.
The way you see the big Ferris wheel,
you see a few rides that
I'm never going to go near.
It's just not going to happen,
not after the chicken wheel.
And I do not like this.
Especially after eating this.
Heather,
I forget you wanted.
Did you want the deep fried smores?
I'm not into that. I want one too.
Have you Did you ever. Did you find him?
Can you tell me what Booth I will
be at as soon as I get down there?
Oh, now he's got his mouth.
I think it's. Can you get closer to
Chicken Charlie and see if they're there?
Smores is one of my favorite desserts
right there with you. Charlie was
actually out here, and he said
hi when you see him every year.
But see their menu.
They've got all the chicken,
Chicken, Charlie growing up,
115 food vendors, guy.
I can't even scratch the
surface of what we have.
Numerous concerts.
Again, we have the the stage
over here with performers.
We've got the rides.
We're going to show you
some of the fun things.
It's get out there is the
fair of the industry.

So many different things.
