9/11 was not a good time to start a business

We found our wind socks and got into the Kansas State Fair. The Fair ran from September 7th through the 16th, 2001. Whirligigs were a hot item then as there were not many available. We purchase a good supply for the Fair and were ready to make a quick killing. Business the first weekend were pretty good and we were thinking this will be a great Fair. Then came 9/11 on Tuesday. I was at home getting ready to go to the Fair when the second tower was hit. I went on to work but might as well of stayed home. The Fair was dead for the year. Everyone was watching the news. Much more important things going on now than starting a business.
