Fairgoers packed the midway for the fair's final day Sunday. Willie Nelson fans also got a treat. The country legend rocked Dorton Arena with a free concert.
Nelson was not the only star of the show.Jim Grahamalso had top billing. After 36 years in office, this was Graham's last as the state's agriculture commissioner.
"It's great way to wind down my career with such a good performance," says Graham. "Naturally, I'm pleased, and a little emotional, but the sense of it is you are serving people and people love the state fair. We've had a great run."
Lots of people add up to tons of trash. The big cleanup is under way. State Fair officials say 700 tons of trash was generated during the fair. -->
