With over a million attendees during the 23 day event, the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo really lives up to their motto “This Thing is Legendary.” That’s not even counting their 119 year history, having been established in 1896!
Now, you may know that the event brings together over a million attendees from over 80 countries, but did you know that the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo is a non-profit organization? Or that it has donated millions as educational grants toward ranch management and other livestock related fields?
We’ve had the distinct pleasure to be a part of the Stock Show and Rodeo for 4 years now, and its just great to get the opportunity to hear the stories from people all over the state, country, and even the world! Of course, we’re there to educate people about quality windows too, so we’re glad that they don’t mind listening to us either!
The Stock Show and Rodeo runs from January 16 to February 7, with nightly events and all sorts of competitions/events daily. More information can be found at their website http://www.fwssr.com/ (Image Credit for Livestock Photo: Fort Worth Star Telegram)
