Louisiana has dozens of festivals held every year all across the state - from the French Quarter Festival to Jazz Fest to the Mandeville Seafood Festival to Oktoberfest to Celebration in the Oaks to many many others (shown in link).
Not one of them is in honor of corndogs.

You know, where the 4 fingered carney comes in and sets up the tiltawhirl overnight. That's the kind of people LSU fans remind us of. And yes, they smell like corndogs.

I can't think of a single "parish fair" in the NOLA or BR area in my whole life. In fact, I'd never seen a carnie before I moved to Texas. It was fascinating. I grew up going to festivals run by locals and they served Cajun food not corndogs. But whatever makes you happy
