(Des Moines, IA) — The Iowa State Fair wrapped up Sunday after an eleven-day run topping the one million attendance mark again. Saturday saw more than 128 thousand visitors — a record high for one-day attendance, with Sunday, still tallied. State Fair C-E-O Gary Slater says there were not many negatives. One day, fairgoers experienced more than three inches of rain in a short time, made for some wet fairgoers and some muddy areas. But the rest of the days were nice — which wasn’t a given with triple-digit temperatures and heat indices heading up to the Fair start.
