Flying off the top rope and into the Ellis County Fair for the first time is Midget Wrestling Warriors, a new addition to this year’s lineup.

The fair runs from July 11 to 19 and includes car races, rodeos, family-friendly fun and now wrestling.

Midget Wrestling Warriors will perform at 8 p.m. July 18 at the Rodeo Arena. Ellis County Fair Vice President Jill Pfannenstiel said the show is meant for anyone eager to see jaw-dropping stunts.

"We wanted a show that was something new and not offered a whole lot in the community," Pfannenstiel said.

These warriors are ready to deliver a high-flying show that pushes limits and redefines live entertainment. The lineup features Short Sleeve Sampson, Rob the Giant, Demus, Mascarita Divina and Potro Romano.

The show will be two hours long with a 20-minute intermission. You can learn more about Midget Wrestling Warriors here.

Tickets for the fair can be purchased in advance here or at the gate. A pass covering seven events costs $40, and a single-night admission costs $20. Children age 5 and younger get in free.
