I was amazed at the number of new ideas/products that were introduced at the fair. Shredded wheat, Cracker Jacks, the hamburger, and of course, the Ferris Wheel. Lots more.

Also, I never knew that the AC vs DC electricity debate was settled by the fair.

As for the buildings, don't forget that a lot of them burned.
