    Big Tex, Texas' tallest talking cowboy at 52 feet, greets visitors from far and wide who travel to attend The State Fair of Texas for live entertainment, games, rides and mouthwatering fried foods.

    A light parade starts in front of Big Tex just after sun down. So grab a Fletcher's corny dog and enjoy the show.

    As Americana art goes… it’s a classic! Texas State Fair is a must see.
