Community & Agriculture: The Mercer County Fair closed out with youth rodeos, a chicken show, cattle and sheep competitions, and a high school rodeo plus music. Gaming Update: Bethesda nerfed Fallout 76 Infestation bosses after player complaints, with a broader reward overhaul promised for the endgame event.
