This goes back several years ago when Paul & I got on the topic of the band, the Bay City Rollers. This was pre-Facebook and we got quite a few calls about folks from Great Falls, who were at their show at the grand stands at the fairgrounds in Great Falls in about 1978ish. ...

It's fair time in our town, and I just want to ask you two questions about it. 1. What's your favorite thing at the fair? 2. What's your least favorite?

Paul has been trying to get the county commissioners here to let people into our fair for free, for years. And now, Missoula is going to do it. It's time for us too. Let your county commissioners know that you like this idea. John Ostlund    256-2701 Robyn Driscoll 256-2701 Dennis Pittman 256-2701 Yes, I realize that the number is the same for all three...

You may have noticed that a lot of fair commercials are not airing on the CAT.  I am the blame for that.  I think there is some displeasure with my comments about the taxpayers of Yellowstone County also getting a free day like other sectors of the population...

For some, summer is over when the first day of school arrives. For me, summer ends when I finally get to put the mower away for good for that year...

Admission To The Fair Should Be Free
Its that time of year where I do my annual "admission to the fair should be free" argument.  We are already paying taxes to keep the facility up and running.  The extra 8 dollars in a person's pocket would be left there, along with countless other dollars...

The Thrill Ride He will Not Try
I've ridden lots of thrill rides, but for some reason I just can't seem to get the nerve to ride the Sling Shot. I'm not sure if it's the fear of death, the fear of looking like an ass on YouTube from screaming, passing out, or even worse...

If you were one of the more than 12,000 spectators at last year's three-day rodeo event at MontanaFair, you got to see some of the best riders and ropers in the business. With 536 cowboys in competition for big purses, 2014 was a record-setting year and an exciting show for fans of all ages.

As always, MontanaFair will have some famous names on the event line up. Like Lynyrd Skynyrd, Blue Oyster Cult, and country crooner Martina McBride. Those will no doubt be great shows, but don't underestimate the entertainment value in the not-so-famous category: The talent show...
