Today, the traditional style of Brook Hollow still beckons to players of every level of experience. With small greens and narrow, tree-lined fairways, Brook Hollow Golf Club has been rated as 8th Best in State golf course by Golf Digest magazine.

What goes up, must come down. And when you go up at Zero Gravity, expect to come down out of the sky at top speeds. With five rides named The Texas Blastoff, Nothin' But Net and The Skyscraper, you know you're in for one wild ride at this attraction. This collection of gravity-defying rides has got your name on it.  Other death-defying thrill rides include The Skycoaster sending you soaring through the air at 60 mph then lingering at 100 feet and dropping right down as your stomach follows close behind. The Texas Blastoff resembles a giant slingshot with you in it and rocketing 150 feet up in the air at 70 mph then coming back down in a twisting, topsy-turvy free fall. Nothin' But Net gives you a chance to experience dropping from a 16-story tower, then freefalling into a safety net with (gulp!) no bungee, no cords and no harness. The Skyscraper is where you'll sit down and relax in a 165-foot propeller−until takeoff, at which point you'll get whipped around until you reach Four Gs.

Raise a bottle of grog, wipe your matted beard on your sleeve and toast your knight at the Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament. This attraction will make you feel like royalty with its banquet-style theater in the round, and you can tour the grounds where period-costumed actors create a Medieval village experience.

It's everything you've always dreamed of as a kid. The State Fair of Texas features tons of blue-ribbon animals, favorite fair food, games, major entertainment and plenty of family fun. The annual festival takes place over 4 weeks in September and October.
