Break out the funnel cakes. Unleash the giant stuffed animals. Bring on the B-list musical acts. It's fair time! You know, that time of year when you marvel at the breadth of unhealthy foods and healthy livestock.

With ferris wheels spinning nationwide, we had no choice but to spin through the Buzz data. Here are the top 20 fair searches from the past week...


  1. Alameda County Fair
  2. Orange County Fair
  3. Wisconsin State Fair
  4. Marin County Fair
  5. San Diego County Fair
  6. Illinois State Fair
  7. Ohio State Fair
  8. Iowa State Fair
  9. Indiana State Fair
  10. Minnesota State Fair
  1. New York State Fair
  2. California State Fair
  3. Brockton Fair
  4. Missouri State Fair
  5. Ventura County Fair
  6. Kentucky State Fair
  7. Sonoma County Fair
  8. Salem Fair
  9. New Jersey State Fair
  10. Dupage County Fair

    A couple of final notes on fairs...

    —California county fairs dominate the list, taking 4 of the top 5 spots. Could it be that the coastal hipsters aren't too jaded to embrace the corny traditions of summer time fairs?

    —Top fair movers from the past week included: Delaware State Fair (+612%), L.A. County Fair (+586%), and Solano County Fair (+341%). California keeps on shinin'!
