Re: “Cash-strapped Colorado State Fair could move out of Pueblo,” July 16 news story.
So tiresome: Every year another Denver area official proposes moving the Colorado State Fair to Denver. Expected behavior from typical geocentric Denverites. Dirty old Pueblo is just a place Denver folks drive through with their doors locked.
How about Denver folks take a pittance out of the dollars they’re considering lavishing on a shiny new National Western Stock Show venue and throw them down south? Then they might rouse themselves to head south on Interstate 25 to see how special the fair is in its location of 125 years.
