Tractor Pull Adds Excitement to Iowa State Fair
Des Moines will host a tractor pulling contest Aug 25-28 as a new highlight of the Iowa State Fair. Secretary Kenneth Falk said the event aims to unite fairs statewide, with $275 in prize money and top three in each class advancing to the state fair. Rules stipulate driver age 16+, parental permission if under 21, $10 entry fee, weigh-in 7-9 a.m., and strict equipment and driving requirements for classes up to 11 000 pounds.
