1. The show Was Filmed In 2021
Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, production across the entertainment industry has been a little all over the place. Fortunately, it doesn’t appear that Deep Fried Dynasty was impacted by any delays because it was filmed in 2021 after many COVID restrictions had been lifted. The 2021 State Fair of Texas took place from September 24 to October 117.
2. Viewers Will Learn About The Culture of the State Fair of Texas
It goes without saying that food is the main focus of Deep Fried Dynasty, but that isn’t the only thing the show is about. The series also gives viewers the chance to learn about the State Fair of Texas and the rich culture that it has maintained for more than 130 years.
3. The Show Follows Eight Fair Vendors
One of the things that makes Deep Fried Dynasty so interesting is the fact that it follows a specific group of vendors. This allows viewers the chance to get invested in each vendor’s journey and their business. Although there is lots of fun and excitement that goes into selling food at the fair, there are also lots of stressful moments.
4. Viewers Will Be Shocked By How Much Money Fried Food Can Make
Selling fried food at fairs — at least at the State Fair of Texas — can be a very lucrative business opportunity. During each episode, viewers will get to see how much money vendors have made for the day and many of the numbers will be mindblowing. In fact, some of the vendors featured in the show are able to sustain themselves all year from the money they earn at the fair.
5. The Show’s Future Is Unknown
