The worlds smallest fair. Part 3

I forgot one incident last time that I feel is worthy of mention. While driving through the streets of Huntington Beach trying in vain to find a parking spot. I saw probably the best car accident of all time. As a van was left onto the street in front of us, the truck behind him started to go straight. However, for some reason the van decided to stop right in the middle of when it was turning, causing the truck to rear end the van and take out the trucks left headlight. The van wasn't harmed in any way. Now if that happened to me I would be mad, but I would simply get out, listen to the guys apology and get his insurance, though really if I were to rear end him it would be my fault. However, broski in the van decides to jump out and immediately tear the driver of the van a new one, even though the van was the one that got rear ended. It didn't stop there, as a witness then informed the driver of the truck that he was the one at fault, causing the driver of the truck to freak out at the witness. That was the last thing we saw as we drove away.

The first part of the next day was fairly boring. I had to go to a family reunion. It was fairly boring so I won't bore you with the details of it. After everyone got back from that, we decided to head down to the Orange County Fair. It being a Sunday night in the middle of summer, traffic getting in was a nightmare. The thing is for how big the parking lot was, the fair was actually fairly small. Though it had all of the staples like food, animals, and rides, the area in encompassed seemed pretty small. I did have 3 things that I have never eaten before while I was there. The first was a fried twinkie. I wasn't that impressed by it, as it seemed like somebody just took a twinkie and put it in a microwave. The second thing I at was some chocolate covered bacon. To picture what that was like, imagine a kit-kat bar, though instead of a waffer in the middle it was a very crunchy and salty piece of bacon. The third thing I ate was amazing. For the first time ever I had some fried frog legs. Though everyone thought I was nuts for even trying them, I personally thought they were amazing. For those that have never had the chance to try them, they reminded me of chicken wings that taste like halibut. They even had a slight fishy texture, though that may have been amplified by tartar sauce that they gave me.

The rest of the fair was pretty standard fair. I didn't go on any rides, as not only were they really expensive to ride, but all of them looked like they were designed for the whole purpose of making one vomit.
