The Wisconsin State Fair will try to make up for the gully washers of the weekend by adding deals Tuesday for cheaper admission to State Fair Park and for the day's grandstand performance.
The fair will offer 2-for-1 admission Tuesday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday, which means two adults will be able to get into the fair for $9. Fairgoers also will get $2 off of all midway rides from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Fairgoers also can get a 2-for-$20 deal for upper grandstand seats at Tuesday night's Big & Rich concert with Cowboy Troy and Candy Coburn. Those seats would normally cost $20 each.
Fair officials expected attendance to drop this year because of the economy, but fairgoers also Saturday and Sunday because of the rain.
State Fair spokeswoman Patrice Harris said officials discussed providing a deal early Sunday.
"Then of course with the weather yesterday, we said 'let's do it,'" Harris said.
The fair had already scheduled the annual Crazy Grazin' Day for Tuesday, with reduced prices on select items from certain food vendors from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., Harris said.

Looks like you are huge fan of WI State fair. ( No, I am not complaining - It's just an observation). In fact, it's a nice change from the regular partisan talking points. Yes, we can! ;-)
The weather will become beautiful, as the legendary 940 returns to his old stomping grounds ...
Tonight opening the show for BIG and RICH is CANDY COBURN who is definitely worth the price of admission to the mainstage show just to see her..her song PINK WARRIOR supports breast cancer research and is worth a look at her website...take a look...
Game, I really loved the Mercyme/Chad James concert on Mon. Bart from Mercyme had soldiers or family members of soldiers stand up, so we could thank them.
He also mentioned that God is in control no matter who you voted for or didn't vote for. It was a great concert and made me feel better about the direction of our country.
