Even though we've had the coolest summer in decades and last week was comfortable, Montgomery County Fair organizers blame the weather for low attendance.

"Construction on South Main Street may have also played a role in the drop of attendance, Friedline said.
Koval said the Aug. 28 opening of the new Hollywood Gaming at Dayton Raceway may have also played a role in the attendance decrease. However, Friedline disagreed."

There was some unusual rain for Labor Day, but this sounds a little more reasonable. Maybe the giant fight that got so many people kicked out had something to do with it too. I bet this fair organization is a government-backed non-profit.
