The fair has opened.  At 3 oclock today the gates were opened as a soft launch.  Check out the schedule for today here.  The roller coaster above is in bad need of a name, right now they are calling it RC-48. Its one of the biggest traveling roller coasters in the world! They assure us its safe as can be. Submit your name suggestion by 11pm tonight at the guest relations booth, near the Commercial and Education Building in Kiddieland. 

Josh Turner plays tonight at 7:30 in Dorton Arena, tickets are $22.

Watch New Raleigh over the next week for all kind of fair stories.  We already previewed some of the fried food, like deep-fried pecan pie. Of course, fireworks are tonight at 9:30.

    Some lady won the contest, they have named it the “Toxic Shock” and no I’m not joking.

    I wonder if she’s ever read the insert in the tampon boxes… because that’s what comes to mind for me.

    In other news, Heidi Newfield and Lady Antebellum put on an AWESOME shot for $9.20 last night at Dorton grin
