🍧🔥 FAIR FOOD BATTLE DAY 2🔥🍦

When the Indiana summer heat is in full force at the Knox County Fair, there’s one important question…
What’s for dessert? 😋

What are you grabbing first? 👀

🍦 Let It Snow Ice Cream
🆚
🍧 OsCones Shaved Ice

One is rich, creamy, and loaded with your favorite flavors. The other is icy, refreshing, and the perfect way to beat the heat.

👍 LIKE this post if you’re Team Let It Snow Ice Cream

❤️ HEART this post if you’re Team OsCones Shaved Ice

Then head to the comments and defend your choice! Is ice cream the undisputed fair champion, or does shaved ice deserve the crown? 👇🏆

Tag your fair-going friends and see where they stand! This battle is about more than bragging rights—it’s a chance to highlight the incredible food vendors that make the Knox County Fair a favorite summer tradition year after year. 🎡

Who’s taking home today’s Fair Food Battle victory? 🍦🍧🏆

And while we're showing off... here's a deal worth bragging about too! 👇

💥 Presale Carnival Vouchers are just $20 — that's a $10 savings! 💥

At the fair, that same voucher will cost $30, so why not save that extra $10 for fair food, games, lemonade, or maybe one more trip through the midway? 🍿🍔🎯

Your voucher can be redeemed for:
🎟️ A sheet of ride tickets OR
🎡 An unlimited ride armband (Tuesday, Wednesday, or Saturday)

Trust us... these rides are going to be the talk of the midway, and we can't wait to show them off in person this summer! 🔥
