    Langlade County wants you to catch the fair fever.

    Their 4-H youth fair is happening right now through Sunday in Antigo.

    Organizers say Thursday is family night...and they promise several new and exciting activities.

    "Our fair board worked really hard to come up with something for pretty much the whole family to enjoy. Under the grandstand they're going to be doing some pig wrestling, which people are very excited about," said Dawn Doperalski, the 4-H youth development agent.

    In addition to pig wrestling, Thursday families can take their turn on a mechanical bull, listen to Vic Ferrari and check out the Budweiser Clydesdales.

    Doperalski says judges are awarding prizes for kids who have worked all year raising beef and dairy cattle, sheep, llamas and rabbits...and creating arts and crafts.

    The carnival is up and running as well, with special deals through Sunday.
