News : Grovert Twins bring home 2nd in the Most Alike Twin at the Iowa State Fair

Nora and Jenna Grover continue to bring home ribbons for being "The Most Alike"

Not everyone could bet on winning in a competition at the Iowa State Fair. The Grovert sisters can. Nora and Jenna Grovert have competed every year (except the year the fair was down during 2020) Every year, they've placed in the top four slots. 

This year, the two won 2nd place in the 12-17 age category for the "most alike twins" in the Twins Triplets and More Contest.

Fairgoers and judges saw double, and at times triple, at the annual Twins, Triplets and More Contest that was judged on Thursday, August 8, at the 2024 Iowa State Fair.

This contest judges twins, triplets and other multiples based on most and least alike pairs, trios and quads.
