The State Fair of Texas is now open at Fair Park in Dallas and will be through Sunday, October 20. While that signals the return of Big Tex to the Dallas skyline, it also means that an iconic food is now available: Fletcher’s Original Corny Dogs.
Neil and Carl Fletcher started selling corny dogs at the 1942 State of Fair of Texas for fifteen cents. Since then, Fletcher’s has been deemed a “staple” of the fair-going experience. This year, there are seven stands located throughout the grounds to assist you with your fix.
