Written by

If you’re a cowboy or cowgirl, you will not want to miss this year’s Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo by Coors Banquet in Fort Worth, Texas. You haven’t seen a rodeo until you’ve watched our contestants rope and ride for the Coors Light grand prize. Whether you enjoy bull riding, team roping, bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, or watching the cowgirls turn and burn in barrel racing, we have something for you.
The first ever stock show in Texas took place on the banks of Marine Creek in 1896. Since then, the Fort Worth stock show and rodeo has only gotten better, breaking a record for FWSSR seating in 2012 with 1,166,000 attendants.

Peter Varlet

Peter Varlet’s the cowboy critic you love to hate, until he’s right. Born during a thunderstorm in 1972 in Bismarck, North Dakota, he grew up watching his WWII vet dad battle to save their farm from corporate claws. Now, Peter’s the unapologetic voice of Western culture, with a historian’s grip on America’s past, acknowledging both its heroes and hypocrites. His truth to power articles are a no-holds-barred zone for rodeo reviews, cowboy movie takedowns, and ranching tricks that work. He’ll tell you why your country singer’s a fraud and how to fix a fence with only baling wire and spite. Peter despises corporate factory farms taking over and cherishes the DIY grit of real Americans. Politically correct? Nope. Trustworthy? Damn straight. He’s saving the West, one brutal truth at a time.
