When I was a kid, we would usually go to the Tennessee State Fair each year. It was a lot of fun: tickets, rides, games, and carnival attractions.

Something that stood out was the number of eclectic tents selling different wares. My favorite was the incense tent. There were all these incense vessels shaped like dragons, snakes, and other mythical creatures. It stunk to high heaven with dozens of competing scents being burned all at the same time. You don’t see that kind of thing much anymore.
