2 20 amp to 50 amp dogbone???
We like to take our RV to our local county fair which has decent electric buried throughout the camping area. Problem is the only hookups are 20 amp household outlets hooked to 20amp circuit breakers...

The GFCI/Neutral issue aside, it'd depend on how the CG wired its pedestals. If there's only one 20A receptacle, both sockets are going to be on the same leg/same breaker (and probably a GFCI). Cheater Box is usually 30 + 20, to get two separate circuits into the adapter. If the Pedestal had two, separate, 20A circuits, then a Cheater along the idea of the typical 30 + 20 might offer some help, but again, not with the GFCI issue.
The Big Deal about "50A" service is it's really One Hundred Amps. 50A x 120V = 6000W, but it's x 2 for 12500W. Far cry from 20A x 120V = 2400W and even 30A x 120V = 3600W. Again, if the 50A is wired correctly, all the way from the CG's power center to every pedestal.
