ST. PAUL, Minn. (WCCO) – There is more to the fair than the fried foods and Midway rides.

WCCO’s Matt Brickman wanted to find the odd things at the Great Minnesota Get-Together.

Among the most off-the-wall discoveries were seamstresses showing off their skills, and treadmills available for those wanting to burn some calories in the upper Grandstand.

In addition, mini massages are located in the Grandstand, which came in handy as Matt was a little hard on his ribs when he fell during an inaugural skateboarding experience at the 3^rd Lair.
