I went to that Fair. The theme was “Energy.”
My recalled impression was “dinky” for a World’s Fair, but then I was comparing it to the Montreal Expo ‘67, parts of which still exist as a park, so that’s probably not ‘fair’ (pun intended) of me.

I too attended (was in air traffic control school in Millington/Memphis for the Marine Corps at that time). It was dinky but that area is some very lovely country.

Living near DC you get spoiled by the Smithsonians. I was pretty disappointed. I think it was too much for a small city to take on.
