Who is Linda Skeens?
The District Fair Darling
The Virginia Kentucky District Fair, held June 14–18, 2022, has captured the attention of Facebook users across the US and beyond. Why? Because Linda Skeens won most of the prizes, and the internet has questions. And praise. And so many jokes.
She came to my attention when I saw someone share this photo from the County Fair showing that Linda swept the Baked Goods competition.
Curious, I clicked to read the comments. They did not disappoint!
Some of my favorites:
Everyone: “You can’t win them all!”
Linda: 😎💁♀️ Bet.
(Dana Baker Snodgrass)I think we all need to go to Linda’s house
(Rhonda Jennings Bright)Chuck Norris beats everyone except Linda Skeens.
(Josh Clark)
But it gets better. Linda dominated the Adult Canning competition (though a few other people took a ribbon here and there). She took first place for multiple jams (pumpkin butter, strawberry jam, apple butter, and miscellaneous jam).
