Tulsa Flyer photojournalist Milo Gladstein spent an evening at the Tulsa State Fair covering the sights, from vendors and food inside the SageNet Center to the midway rides.
Attendees enjoyed classic fair favorites such as massive turkey legs, funnel cakes, corn dogs, caramel apples and cotton candy. Entertainment spans the choices of rollercoasters, water slides, spinning rides, a sea lion show and a host of musical performances.
The fair also continues to serve as a space for teenagers looking for a fun place to hang out with friends. The annual event continues through Sunday at the Tulsa County Fairgrounds.
You might spot some familiar faces at the Tulsa Flyer and Oklahoma Eagle booth inside SageNet, near the NATV food stand.
