Reviews are mixed, even a single review:

Deep fried sugar, rigged carnival games, braying livestock, washed-up rock bands and bone-rattling carnival rides of dubious integrity: The Lane County Fair is simultaneously the best of times and the worst of times.[1]

In 1973, the fair was considered best in state for Oregon county fairs of more than 100,000 people in attendance.[2]

With 2020's cancellation as the COVID-19 pandemic was to blame, the event was deferred to 2021.
