Mitra

A State-ly a Fair

On their last day in Little Rock before they left town for their next mobile stop in Lawton, Oklahoma, Andrew and Mitra decided to visit the Arkansas State Fair. On arrival, both were intent on answering the question, “What makes a good looking hog?”

Mitra, now entering her ninth week on the road, went looking for a little affection from Marcellus the Goat.

Unfortunately, Marcellus is in a committed relationship to a prize winning nanny goat and declined to pucker up.

Andrew stands before a pile of giant turkey legs. In this picture, Andrew is concealing five turkey legs in his mouth. What a feat!

Continuing a nationwide tradition among MobileBooth facilitators, Andrew goes for a ride on a mechanical bull.
