Oprah Winfrey drew crowds at both the State Fair of Texas and WFAA's Victory Park Studio Monday.

People began lining up at 4 a.m. to watch Winfrey's taping at the fair, which attracted about 4,000 people according to the show's spokesman Don Halcombe. With rain drizzling down on the packed fans, some were taken away on stretchers to the hospital due to exhaustion. READ MORE

The report adds that this was the first time Oprah had been to WFAA-TV since 1986 when she was on a promotional tour for her then new talks show.

Watch sports anchor Dale Hansen ask Oprah to apologize for introducing the country to Dr. Phil.
