summertime traditions.</span> <span data-start-time='5875' data-end-time='8813'>Just ask Don Greiman.</span> <span data-start-time='8813' data-end-time='18042'>He has been going to the Iowa State Fair since just after he was born  89 years ago.</span> <span data-start-time='18042' data-end-time='31438'>Greiman said state fairs started in the mid-1800s because farmers wanted to have a gathering to show off their produce each year.</span> <span data-start-time='31438' data-end-time='42292'>For example, farmers that raised cows wanted to see how their cows compared to the cows of their neighbors.</span> <span data-start-time='42292' data-end-time='48354'>Over time, state fairs evolved into bigger events.</span> <span data-start-time='48354' data-end-time='50667'>Much bigger events.</span> <span data-start-time='50667' data-end-time='55771'>&ldquo;The women thought, say, you know, our husbands are proud of their livestock.</span> <span data-start-time='55771' data-end-time='61417'>We&rsquo;re sort of proud of our baking and cooking and maybe garment-making.</span> <span data-start-time='61417' data-end-time='63479'>So we ought to have a little fair, too.</span> <span data-start-time='63479' data-end-time='65896'>And that&rsquo;s how fairs started.</span> <span data-start-time='65896' data-end-time='70833'>And then somebody could maybe play a fiddle or a little entertainment with it.</span> <span data-start-time='70833' data-end-time='73250'>And that&rsquo;s how it sort of evolved.</span> <span data-start-time='73250' data-end-time='76875'>And they decided, &lsquo;Well, hey, let&rsquo;s make this an annual event.&rdquo;</span> <span data-start-time='76875' data-end-time='84375'>Today, some state fairs average over 100,000 visitors per day.</span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky' style='display:none;'><div class='control-buttons'><button title='Back' class='back' disabled='disabled'></button><button
