3 reviews for Conejo Valley Days
things seen at Conejo Valley Days:

- a tent selling Zima
- vomit (in/around The Zipper)
- members of Houston Hoods
- band t-shirts of poor quality
- a jaw-dropping musical performance by local heros Papa Nata
- girls with herpes
- horses
hard to find fault with anything on that list. i would've given it 5 stars, except this dude with a cowboy hat who i tried to bum a cigarette off wouldn't help me out just because i was 14 years old. i prefer carnival patrons to be a litle more love-thy-neighbor.

Conejo Valley Days is like a mini-fair. It has all the classics like fair food, thrill rides, and carnival games. I think it even has a rodeo, if you're into that sort of thing, which I totally am NOT. But no concerts, and it's definitely not as big as the Ventura County Fair. Still, it can be a fun night for $7.
Sadly, the last time I went, I was a teacher at NPHS and I kept seeing my students EVERYWHERE, which made me feel sort of silly for being there in the first place.

Cleanest. Fair. Ever.
That includes the port-a-potties.
(Or maybe I lucked out by going on a weeknight, rather than Saturday or Sunday.)
It's small, but big enough to have lots of rides and games. And uggggghh. My head. I feel like I've been drinking, but it's all from that Zipper ride thing. I was clinging to those handles, screaming my ass off as we kept flipping around, and I really didn't care that my purse hit me in the face several upside-down times because rickety carnival rides scare the crap out of me.
Boooo to not having one of those lame haunted house rides with the pop-up zombies or cardboard vampires, though.
High school kids everywhere. Yeah. (What do you expect?)
The food booths weren't that bad. Typical grilled and deep fried stuff, but nothing rare and worth raving about. But the elephant ears and the overpriced $3 soft-serve cones made me happy.
The best thing? I don't have that carnival grime all over me.
