3. NEW FOOD
If you thought last year’s State Fair had over-the-top things to eat, get ready for the 2014
Oklahoma State Fair New Food List:
All American Hot Dog - One of Diamond Dawgs many “hot dog
creations” is a grilled polish sausage on a freshly baked artisan bun, topped
with homemade mac & cheese, and finished with grated cheddar cheese.
Bacon Bloomin’ Onion – A batter-fried onion is hard to resist but now
that Porky’s has topped their hand-cut onions with bacon, Fair Food
Fanatics will be clamoring to get a taste.
Bacon Explosion Sundae - This sundae has it all: ice cream, whipped
cream, caramel sauce, bacon & more bacon! Is it dinner or dessert? Find
out at Guiltless Concessions.
Bacon & Gouda French Fries – Why have plain French fries when you
can cover them in freshly shredded Gouda cheese and delicious crumbled
bacon? Head over to the Bacon Habit and grab yourself a plate full.
Bacon-Wrapped Jack Daniels – Sit back and imagine a churro infused
with a half a shot of Jack Daniels, wrapped in bacon and grilled. Served
up crispy and topped with maple syrup & whipped cream. Is your mouth
watering? The Bacon Habit has the cure.
Boudin On-A-Stick – Rolling on the Bayou is bringing a favorite
Southern Louisiana dish, Boudin, to the State Fair this year. But it wouldn’t
be a Fair Food if it wasn’t served on a stick!
Captain Crunch Chicken On-A-Stick – Diamond Dawgs batters
chicken strips in their own special Capt’n Crunch cereal based batter and
serves them with sweet honey mustard on the side. This moist and tender
chicken will please folks who crave both sweet and savory.
Caveman Turkey Leg – Sure to delight carnivores, the Bacon Habit is
taking a GIANT turkey leg and wrapping it with a pound of bacon before
smoking it to seal in the flavor. You’ll need big appetite to devour this
mammoth-sized meal.
Cuban Pork Crepe – CoCo Flow Concessions isn’t afraid to turn a sweet
treat into something savory. Shredded pork, some Swiss cheese, pickle
spears & a dash of spicy Tabasco mayo all rolled up in a fresh crepe.
Churro Shortcake – It’s a new twist on a classic dessert! L’il Bits Donuts
traded out the typical shortcake for churros then topped them with straw-berries
and fresh whipped cream.
Chocolate Dipped Twinkie On-A-Stick – Leave it to Mom & Pop Corn
to skewer a classic snack, dip it in chocolate, and serve it at the State Fair.
Deep-Fried Bacon Cinnamon Roll – The Bacon Cinnamon Roll you’ve
loved for years is getting the deep-fried treatment from Sweet Shop.
Deep-Fried Banana Nutella Crepe – Coco Flow Concessions is lining
its sweet vanilla crepe with fresh bananas and Nutella before deep-frying
and topping it off with chocolate and caramel sauce and whipped cream.
Have mercy.
Deep-Fried Bison Balls – One of Sweet Shop’s many new food
offerings for this year’s State Fair is a flavor explosion for the daring Fair
Food connoisseur. Lean bison meat is mixed with tangy blue cheese crum-bles
and red onion, and then rolled it into balls for a dip in the deep fryer.
Served with horseradish-mayo.
Deep-Fried Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwich On-A-Stick – It
has taken Aunt Edmoe’s year’s to perfect the science behind deep-frying
ice cream. Their homemade chocolate chip ice cream is spread between
two cookies and quickly deep-fried to create a warm, crispy shell around the
chilly ice cream center.
Deep-Fried Giant Gummy Bears – Gummy bears have taken the plunge
into the deep fryer courtesy of the Sweet Shop. But the deliciousness doesn’t
stop there; each bear will be covered in powdered sugar and strawberry
sauce and served on a stick.
Deep-Fried Sauerkraut Balls – And now for something completely
different: sauerkraut, cream cheese, breadcrumbs, and cheddar-jack cheese
is hand-rolled into balls and deep-fried into melt-in-your-mouth goodness.
You’ll have to try them for yourself at the Sweet Shop.
French Toast Burger – Porky’s introduced OKC to the doughnut burger,
the pancake burger and the PB&J burger. Now they’re back with a new bun
choice for you to try – sweet French toast!
Fried Chicken & Donuts with Maple Syrup – If you like chicken and
waffles, you’ll LOVE chicken and donuts. Available at L’il Bits Donuts.
Honey Bun Bacon Cheeseburger – Harvell Concessions is combing
sweet and savory for this new bacon cheeseburger by swapping the typical
bun for a Honey Bun. Run, don’t walk, before it’s too late.
Monkey Time Donut – L’il Bits Donuts doesn’t monkey around with their
fresh take on everyone’s favorite breakfast item. This specialty donut is
topped with creamy peanut butter, fresh banana slices, honey, and bits of
crumbled bacon! Our taste buds are singing already!
Nutella Donut – Great things happen when you mix Nutella and donuts.
L’il Bits Donuts knows the way to our hearts with this hazelnut and chocolate
sensation.
Red Velvet Cinnamon Roll – Tender, fluffy, and ooey-gooey cinnamon
rolls with the flavor of red velvet cake, topped with real cream cheese
frosting? Better get in line now for Sweet Shop’s most decadent new food
item.
Wonderboy Corn Dog – Diamond Dawgs has a new spin on a Fair Food
classic! They deep-fry a special recipe hot dog frank on a stick that has been
coated in a homemade batter made out of Capt’n Crunch cereal. Served with
a side of honey mustard, their technique creates a never before experienced
taste and texture sensation.

FREE CONCERTS WITH GATE ADMISSION
Colt Ford / 7:30 P.M.
Just like his closest “hick-hop” competition, Cowboy Troy,
Ford grew up listening to country - his first concert was
Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton - along with R&B and
hip-hop. When the Georgia native reached adulthood he
began writing songs.
Sept.
11
Kansas / 7:30 P.M.
Celebrating their 40th year as a band in 2013, KANSAS’ first

early ‘70’s, what seemed to be “different,” was actually ahead
of its time.
Sept.
12
Easton Corbin / 8:00 P.M.
Corbin became the first country male artist in 17 years to

form a unique, distinctive voice.
Sept.
15
Vertical Horizon /
7:30 P.M.
This Boston-based band is the epitome of the
do-it-yourself work ethic. It didn’t rely on the
backing of a record company to further its career.
It took it upon itself, releasing three independent
albums before signing a contract with RCA/BMG.
S.O.S. Band / 7:30 P.M.
The band hit with a two-million-selling single, “Take
Your Time (Do It Right),” their first time out. The

junior high and high school art students.
Oklahoma Student Art Exhibition
OKLAHOMA CONTEMPORARY ARTS CENTER
For more than 40 years, the Oklahoma State Fair’s Student Art
Exhibition has supported students and teachers in public,
private, and parochial schools across Oklahoma. The
Oklahoma State Fair takes pride in offering schools an
opportunity to display its students’ work to approximately one
million State Fair visitors each year.
In May, teachers from across the state entered more than 1,100
individual pieces of artwork into this year's competition. Out of
all the entries, 690 pieces were selected for display. In addition
to their artwork being on display during “Oklahoma’s Premier
Family Attraction,” 162 elementary, middle, and high school
students won individual honors for their talents.
Artwork is on display during the
11-day run of the Fair.
