In Vogue: 'Euro'

MN State Fair Dispatches

"Euro," the currency, may be distinctly out of favor, but "Euro," the word, is very much in vogue.

Where?

At this year's Minnesota state fair.

Half the kiddie rides seemed to use it as an adjective, as in "the Euro Bobble," "the Euro Jump," etc., etc.

How . . . exotic (and expensive!)

No doubt in Europe, the amusement parks feature rides billed as "the American roller coaster," the American tilt-a-whirl," etc.
