Wordless Wednesday (Almost)--Flying Cow? Only at the Minnesota State Fair

Skyride at the MN State Fair by Teri Eckholm Realtor

After so many comments on the police or sheriff cable car from my previous Speechless Sunday post, I figured that many would enjoy a seeing the cow painted cable car too! For the record, most cars are just plain solid colors but there are a few that are "pimped" out!

Teri, looks like a cow to me trying to disguise itself into a gondola/cable car - sneaky cow trying to get into the fair for free! :-)  ~ Susan

Hi Teri, This is a quite a wonderful thing to have set up at the fair grounds. It looks to be a permanent feature. Very cleaver and you can just feel all the smiles as people see this.

Teri, a real flying cow would be better but it's a great photo. I saw a Dairy Farmer the other day, whose entire truck was this same paint theme to include the interior. I guess he still loves his cows!

William--There are several permanent features at the Minnesota State fair. The Skyride is one. There is also a SpaceNeedle ride and a Giant Slide. The smaller midway rides are not permanent so they can change but the big ones are the things that people go on year after year...decade after decade! I rode on all three of these as a child and it was the most memorable part of the fair.
