Attendance at the 2017 California State Fair was way down this year. Final numbers show about 36 thousand fewer people went to the fair this year compared to last.
Fair attendance has been dropping since 2015, and when compared to 2017, that’s a 19 percent drop.
Fair officials say they can’t pinpoint exactly why attendance was down, but say the heat may of kept people away with eight of the 17 days hitting the triple digits.
