HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Kansas State Fair General Manager Bryan Schulz said there will be a different way to save on rides on Monday of the Kansas State Fair this year.

"There's been confusion with the carnival, as far as how the ride tickets go," Schulz said. "This year, we've changed it up a little bit, with the help of the carnival. We're doing a $25 wristband that day. Normally we don't do a wristband on that day, but this year, the $25 all day long wristband will be in play instead of the one ticket one ride. It just makes things a lot easier and a lot cleaner."

Dillons is still sponsoring discounted admission for that day, though, and there are other discounted days, too.

"There are a lot of opportunities for you to get into the gate fairly inexpensively," Schulz said. "The first Friday, the Department of Aging and Disability Services, if you're 55 or older, it's $2 to get in. You have Dillons Dollar Day, it's $1 to get in or free with your Dillons Plus. Thursday is $4 after 4. Every day after 9 p.m., you can get in for $5. Then, if you are a PlayOn Member of the Kansas Lottery, on Chiefs Red Friday, you show them your card and you get in for $2."
