Denver's 102nd Annual Stock Show is Not only Fun but Rich in History!

4655 Humboldt Street, Denver, CO 80216.  If this doesn’t quickly ring a bell with you, here is a clue - Denver’s National Western Stock Show! When you are out and about in metro Denver and you suddenly notice a preponderance of boots ‘n hats, it must be Stock Show time!  If you have never attended this annual fun event, put it on your calendar of must-attend annual  events. This year’s two week extravaganza is scheduled to run from January 12-27, 2008. 

Amazingly, the National Western Stock Show has been held in the same location for the past 102 years!  It is certainly not an event to  move easily or whimsically change locations.  After all, how many stock yards can be found in the city of Denver?  From barrel racing and clowns to my personal favorite, the Mexican Rodeo, this is one of the most fun events of all in Denver.  If calf roping and bull wrestling aren’t your cup of tea, the more refined Dancing Horses or Coors Western Art Exhibit might be more interesting to you. 

Suddenly, everyone is a cowboy and either wants to live in Texas or is from there!!  Young or young at heart, first date or old marrieds, this is an event you will certainly want to check out. If you are visiting from out of town and think Denver would be a great place to hang your Stetson, give a TeamCox member a call.  Someone is bound to say "Howdy, Parn’er"!
