SOUTH FLORIDA FAIR
WEST PALM BEACH, FL

And just like that – the South Florida Fair is over… still thinking about all of the wonderful people and memories that were made at the Fair this year.

Superheroes were the theme and Cosmic Times kicked that up a notch with our unique brand of nerd trivia – superhero style! Thank you to the great folks at the South Florida Fair for having us there – a great time was had by all.
