The Maryland State Fair’s rides and amusements have come a long way over the years from greased pole climbs and sack races to a Midway with more than 40 rides that provide thrills and chills for children, adults and adventure seekers of all ages. This year, Deggeller Attractions will feature new high tech rides such as The Typhoon and Funnel Force for the bravest fairgoers and tame but exciting rides for children such as the 4x4 Truck Ride and the Wiggle Worm. The Merry-Go-Rounds and Ferris Wheels will continue their stately presence at the Fair maintaining their position as the all-time favorite rides of fair history. A variety of ride specials will be offered at different times during the Fair including:
