I’m not sure why these fairgrounds are named after the«most modern city in Germany», but so be it. Perhaps the fair is supposed to be German in nature. Maybe that’s why so many young guys are wandering around showing off their«sehr gut» tattoos and waving their sausages around in people’s faces. I’ve been here many times, and not just for the fair. For some reason my friend John Y(not on Unilocal but reads my reviews, I think — lol — are you reading John?) wanted to «go to the fairgrounds and chill». I was worried that he was going to kill me and steal my identity, but in fact, no, it’s just a «chill out spot» for him. Not sure if we’re allowed to just«chill» here when nothing is going on, but it was nice and very quiet and secluded so I can see why he likes it. When I’ve been here for the fair it’s been the opposite. Absolutely packed and crawling with people. These are ample and perfectly adequate grounds for the Erie County Fair, which I just reviewed about 7 seconds ago. They’re pretty freaking awesome actually. You should come here when the fair is in session to really see what these grounds are good for. But of course they can be used for other events, and sometimes are. They score 4 instead of 5 for being a little out of the way for a lot of Erie County that lives on the«other side», and for being a little unkempt at times, but then so is Buffalo. And besides, unkempt is a very German word, so it ties in perfectly. Ya! And can I tell you how many times I’ve been here, you ask? NEIN!
