NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) -

A fight over money could put the Tennessee State Fair in jeopardy.

Sources close to Channel 4 say contract negotiations have been tenuous between the Metro Fair Board and the nonprofit that runs the fair.

The two sides are arguing over how to split ticket sales, according to a report in the City Paper.

The board is meeting at 8 a.m. Tuesday to discuss the situation.
