Crazy Days are here again. Well, almost.

The annual Austin tradition invades downtown Main Street Thursday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., with the Farmer’s Market still at its usual 4 to 6 p.m. time.

Various stores will display discounted items on tables throughout the 200, 300 and 400 blocks of Main Street, which will be blocked off.
