I love going to rodeo, and the actual rodeo is nice and had good shows. But I have babies and…read moredecided to skip this year and only do the fairground and carnival... Let me start with the $20 parking fee, that hurts. Then it's a really long walk to the carnival entrance, another $10 for access to the fairground, and then another however much for rides. During spring break it was $25 for kids during the day (half off) and the make you pay extra for the paper wristband so $27. So you're already $67 in and haven't even done anything yet. The carnival looks old, all the kids ride are just old old old. And most of them your toddler can't ride unless you're with him, so buy another wristband for yourself! And the people working it look like they wish they could be anywhere but there. The food was normal carnival food but extra gross. And expensive. Overall we had a good time because our kids don't know any different, and we love to dress up and go to rodeo. The petting zoo was a cute attraction for the kids, and we love walking the exposition hall. Is it the best rodeo? No. Could it use a good upgrade for the price? Yes. Will I go again next year because that's all we got? Yes.

Got to live out my Yellowstone dreams here!…read more The rodeo itself is spectacular :) It was $45 a pop for standing room. The amount of events was astounding, though, you do feel a little bad for the little cattle getting wrestled or roped to the ground. Alas, life of a cowboy! The carnival & fair are nice - just your old basic fair with big stuffed animals, hard-to-win games, rides with questionable safety factors, and artery clogging foods. Was it a good experience? Yes. Would I go again? This was probably a one time thing for me.

This event usually takes place in the first weekend in June of every year! The best rodeo that I have ever attended. Having attended rodeo's from Ft. Worth, Dallas and all over the southwest, those were more for the city folks, where this rodeo was built tough! Love the local folks as well, down to earth and not pretentious. *To note: Stay for the end! They normally end the rodeo end with the bull riding! You talk about rough! Someone riding a bull has my total respect! These folks are tougher than nails and not only do they stay in shape, but they study the behavior of these great animals that they ride, they have to know about them or they would be mud! Love the barrel ridding event as well as my second favorite event! These ladies know their horses and practice like you all get out! The barrel riding is where usually ladies ride their horse out circling three different barrels and back to their starting point and time is the factor! They have to spend time with their horse, big time! You can really tell, the folks that take care of their animals which I love! My hat's off to the rodeo clowns! Lot's of these folks are out there and get folks out of the way of trouble! My heart is with them! Taking care of these folks is a true blessing! The announcers are pretty funny as well! Always up beat and with a great since of humor! They are always directing you on where to point your attention. They play some great music to go along with the different events, like the individual bull rides! The folks that come out here are down to earth and great folks! Love the locals! You can't forget the roping's! There is some real talent out there! On the north side of the arena they will have the calf roping and my third favorite is the team roping! You have to have some real "All Stars" that can really rope to do this event! When done right, it may even jump up as my favorite event! You have to love the talent that these folks have and show to us folks! What a great value for us to come and see these events! My hats off to all of the folks that participate in this rodeo! This is so worth coming down and seeing this rodeo! I highly recommend this event!

I was recently at a training that used all parts of the venue and I just have to say that having a fan that blows cold AC is worth it's weight in gold. This place does!

Yesterday, I had a strange experience I usually go Walk and get some exercise with my dog and was…read moreapproach by a man who wanted to give me his business cards which I thought okay maybe he's wanting someone to help his business but yet he was pursuing me afterwards. I then felt that he was following me and I felt unsafe. So I started walking faster and this was around the Courtyard area where they have a large grassy arena. I then tried to avoid his eager ways to communicate with me, I then went toward my car to leave and ask if I needed help with my dog carrier. I then knew I was being followed. I left and then realized I may try to get a friend to join me next time. So point is my review has to do with safety, I felt uneasy. I always felt safe here now things are different and changing so if you are by yourself and you are female and you feel on safe either leave or go have a chaperone walk with you. The presence of this individual was very uneasy I come here all the time for years this is the first time I ever had this issue. Stay safe
