OC Fair grounds are not that great. From the OC Fair to other events that go on, I feel that they nickel and dime you for everything.
You have to pay to park ($8), and you have to pay to get into the whatever events you are attending just so that when you finally get in, you can pay for all the food or rides!
Personally, I do no think that it is worth the price.
Generally speaking, the food isn't that great and the prices are horrible.
I will say that there are not many alternatives in regards to "fairs" in the area so by just the lack of competition, it reins supreme.

Some side tips, park across the street so you don't have to pay the $8 parking.
