Fair on the Square CANCELED?!




People of Watertown MA, take a good look. Because the next time you will see these festivities is in September 2009. We all know what went wrong. The weather. It's always the f*cking weather. It became clear this morning as the rain drops fell violently on the good people of Watertown, dashing their dreams of what could have been on September 27th, 2008.
Why am I so bitter? I'm not sure. I hate the majority of Watertown. But I always viewed FOTS as the one day where all the townies can get together in unity and just enjoy themselves, not to mention fried dough, french fries, and bowl upon bowl of free candy. I've had good and bad experiences at FOTS. In 2004 I lost my younger brother in the crowd and it took an hour to find him. In 2005 I watched the Syzlaks and met my best friends. In 2006 I had my first gyro...mmm...and almost threw up on the spinny cup ride.
It's tradition. It's celebration. It's not happening this year. And this is one townie who refuses to believe it.
