A really exciting event
by Sistafatti on 7/24/10Maverik Center - West Valley CityHaven't attended the Days of 47 Rodeo for over 15 years because I felt it was too orchestrated, ie; the same openilng ceremony with the riders on horses circling the arena with the American flag, Days of 47 Royalty circling the arena in a Cadillac convertible, same stupic jokes with the clowns and the rodeo announer etc. This years ceremony was spectacular with troops from the National Guard being lowered from high overhead to the arena floor while carrying the flag. All in all the opening ceremony was very patriotic. The rest of the Rodeo with the riding, roping etc; kept me on the edge of my seat.
