Brooklyn’s largest fair is still in town — but you only have a few days left to catch all the fun.
Newcomers who stopped by the fifth annual Kings County Fair for the first time this year are saying it was a gem.
“That was a great, great fair,” said Donnovan Surjoto, who stumbled on the fair while taking his kids to play mini-golf at Floyd Bennett Field.
The fair — which is taking place at Aviator Sports and Events Center near Marine Park and wraps up on May 26 — boasts rides, games, and carnival food.
“The fun house was a real thrill,” said Steven Marks, another first-timer from Park Slope. “My daughter went on it twice — it definitely tested your balance and dexterity.”
Another visitor said the Stinger — a one-of-a-kind ride that spins, swings, and inverts riders — was a hit with her daughter.
“It’s crazy — it stays up in the air and holds you upside down for like 20 seconds,” said Georgia Papathanasiou, who traveled from Long Beach, Long Island to come to the fair.
Surjoto said his kids liked the petting zoo best, but Marks said the zoo got a little wild when a camel snatched a snack from his daughter and ate it.
“She was a little taken aback by how forward the camel was,” he said.
Marks made up for the bumptious camel by buying his kids a “mega-sized” cotton candy, which they ate with great relish, he said.
In fact, all the fair favorites are there — including funnel cake, hot dogs, and of course the deep-fried Oreo, which Papathanasiou described as “a zeppole wrapped around an Oreo.”
We really liked that one,” she said.
