This is probably a rhetorical question, but why do so many haters feel the need to throw shade at the Lloyd Ex Fair on Facebook?

Every year, the fair comes and goes and thousands of people have the time of their lives while countless others sit at home complaining about it on social media.
More often than not, the complaints are fairly foolish and give the impression that the author is simply trolling.
The negative is always louder than the positive and this is a prime example.
As a whole, I thought this year’s fair was great. My favourite moment was Saturday’s grandstand show featuring Las Vegas-based hair and metal tribute band Spandex Nation.
Chels may have originally been on the fence about attending, but that girl was singing along throughout the band’s entire two-hours-plus set.
Lead singer Kid Hollywood’s voice has a range reminiscent of David Lee Roth and Axl Rose, and his crowd interaction, both on and off stage, was a highlight of the night.
Saturday marked the band’s first-ever show in Canada and it sounds like the boys want to come back for more ketchup chips and coffee crisps!
