It is unlawful to sneak into the state fair grounds without a ticket.

The Law

Scaling the fences or slipping through an unattended gate at the Great Minnesota Get-Together is a specific statutory crime. Because the fair is a massive revenue generator and a deeply beloved state institution, lawmakers wrote a special provision just for gatecrashers. Trying to get your deep-fried cheese curds for free will earn you a trespass charge.
