Best/Worst Foods at the Fair, ‘Revenge’ in Anoka, Oktoberfests

The City Cast team tried foods new and old at the State Fair this week. We defend some eye-brow raisers and muse that you can indeed bring your own whipped cream. Plus, it’s pre-fall; check out these parks, concerts, and Oktoberfests before it gets too cold. We wrap with a story about why Anoka County is beefing with Anoka the city, in a perennial reminder to electeds to be careful about what they text.
