Why Pay State Fair Prices When Shenaniganz Delivers More Fun for Less?

If you’re a family living in the DFW area, you know that fall brings a tidal wave of excitement—Big Tex waves, fried food madness, and neon-lit rides at the State Fair of Texas. But before you break out the coupons and dust off your wallet, let’s talk dollars and senseState Fair prices have reached jaw-dropping levels, making what used to be a simple family weekend now feel like a luxury expense.

Here’s the hard truth: State Fair general admission tickets for a family of four now hit up to $100—and that’s before you park, eat, or play! Parking? Up to $30. A single corny dog? Now $18. That Instagram-worthy turkey leg? $25. Want to ride the Texas Star Ferris Wheel? That’ll be $20 per person. Toss in a few midway games, snacks, and drinks, and you’re easily staring down a total spend of $240 to $400—for just ONE day! Recent surveys show the average local fairgoer shells out a staggering $106 per person for admission, rides, and food. Suddenly, fun feels like another bill to pay.

Don’t Let FOMO Break the Bank—Shenaniganz Has Your Back

Instead of maxing out your credit card at the Fair, drive just a few minutes east to Shenaniganz Family Entertainment Center in Rockwall, where your hard-earned dollars stretch much, much further—without sacrificing fun.
