love the giant slide--you go down on a felt mat. It's pretty cheap (4$!), and a genuine thrill! Also cool to see the crowd of the state fair pressing against the fences as you slide down.

Absolute must-do at the MN State Fair for our family! So much fun! (Aug. 31, 2023)

A classic, and still a staple of the State Fair is the Giant Slide. Nothing gets simpler than a burlap sack and a very large hill. The interesting quirk of the slide is it's nothing but gravity that makes it work, so unlike some of the other rides that tend to loose some of their thrill over the years, the bigger you get, the more harrowing the ride. Be warned if you clock in at more than a few bills, you will catch some air on this thing. If you've written this off as a kid's ride, you may just not have been on it in a while.

Still just $4, not that there is a lot of maintenance. But it’s a must-stop for my daughters and their kids. Me? Not so much. Yes, I’m that cheap. For $4 I want it to last longer.

One of, if not the most iconic attraction at the Minnesota State fair. Tons of fun and crazy fast, and only a few bucks a ride...can't beat that! It is a well maintained staple of the Mn fairgrounds for over 50+ years. I've been blessed enough to meet the owners and many of the crew that makes the whole operation possible. They also run the best damn fresh squeezed lemonade stand on the continent, as well as many other ventures. Best of all it is a family operation, where everyone helps out and a great small business to support. The owners are kind, authentic and a blessing to anyone that comes into contact with them. What a special group of people! Keep up the great work!
