Fairs are festive occasions - the PURPOSE of them is two-fold: 1) to get vendors and customers together, sampling wares, touching fabrics, seeing the goods and 2) to be in big crowds where everyone comes on purpose to be excited about something of a common interest.

If either of these two things aren't of interest to someone, then they should just- not go. They'd be wasting their time, and they'd be another body taking up space at the fair that could be occupied by someone who WANTS to be there.
