Default Edmonton Pro Rodeo at Expo centre?

Anyone else going?

We will be there Saturday night to watch the show. Should be tons of effort from the cowboys and cowgirls on the last stop before the CFR.

Im in D, Row 3 if you'd like to say hi while you're there.....

Not going to make it but I’ll give the thread a bump as they haven’t done a very good job of advertising this rodeo.

Should be an excellent show. If I was local, I'd be there for sure. As it is, I get to host TireBob this weekend. We are gonna burn through a substantial pile of ammo at the gun range. Giggles will be had. And then we may have a whisky or two.

A very well run rodeo.

Those young cowboys and cowgirls were fantastic to watch.

I give C5 Rodeo a 9/10 for this one.

Your comment is EXACTLY what rodeo is about. Everyone supports everyone.

My partner had never seen a rodeo until tonite. She noted that the cowboys cheered each other on. She loved it. She yelled, she cringed, she clapped/smiled/ooooh'ed and awwwww'd.....

I drank $9 beer, ate some dirt and enjoyed the show

How did you manage to eat dirt HS? Or was an excuse to have another $9 beer?

That's the best seat in the house for sure. When the bull hits the rails in front of you, it's worth the spilled beer!
