Fire at Kentucky State Fair Ruins Vendors | Lexington News

A fire sparked by a forgotten T-shirt press at the Kentucky State Fair sent smoke billowing and soaked vendors’ wares—especially Ivette Made, whose first-year inventory was wiped out. Sprinklers saved the day but turned everything into a soggy mess. Neighbors like El Gato Azul also lost everything, but community support is rallying. Ivette’s kids are helping her rebuild, and organizers assured her she’s welcome back next year. She’s determined to sell what she can before the fair ends—proof that grit can turn disaster into comeback. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
