March 191893 World's Fair: Orange Cider, Belly Dancers, and a Madman on a Wheel
Details
McKyler takes Daniel on a wild tour of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair — where a serial killer ran a "Murder Castle" next door, the world's first Ferris wheel lifted 60 people 264 feet into the sky, belly dancers scandalized the nation, orange cider somehow became a thing, and the mayor of Chicago was assassinated two days before closing. Oh, and Cracker Jack, the dishwasher, and Pabst Blue Ribbon all debuted here too. Just a normal fair.
