For a while now, the Iowa State Fair has offered half-price admission on the last day of the fair, and certain days after 5 PM, and advertised it as such.
This year, now that a ticket has risen to $11, Sundays and evenings aren’t quite half-price anymore — it’s “discounted” at $6. Maybe the booth minders are afraid of quarters or something.
In 2006, a ticket cost $10 with advance admission of $6. In 2007, the advance price was raised to $7. This year, it’s $8.
