Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
It's hard to tell which part of the Denver County Fair is better: the food, the festivities or the half-sick, half-elated, entirely dazed feeling you get when you're done with them. Regardless, the annual tradition combined all three (plus a freakshow) once again at the National Western Complex this weekend, and Westword photographer Brandon Marshall was there to capture all the glory and grease.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
