Salt Stories: "The Name of the Game"

Ten groups of Salt Institute for Documentary Studies students visited the Oxford County Fair in Oxford, Maine and each found their own story to tell. Part 6 looks at one person that runs a game stand and claims he's taught more kids to throw darts than anyone else in the world.

"Carnival games are a notable tradition at countless county fairs across the country. Roland Cote, Roberta MacMillan, and Ed Griffiths have each owned carnival games for more than a decade. Spend a day with them at the Oxford County Fair and learn about their ups and downs, as well as what makes it all worth it in the end." — Producers Julia Henderson and Kerry Ensinger
