About the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo
There are lots of annual events out there that go back a long way, but none can hold a candle to the history that's behind the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo. The oldest of any continuously operating rodeo in America, it began toward the end of the 19th century, way back in 1896. Every year since then (with the exception of 1943 for WWII-related reasons), the event, also known as the Southwestern Exposition and Livestock Show, has brought the best in rodeo entertainment and livestock exhibitions/competitions to Texas, with people traveling from all over the country to see it. Now, that's a tradition. Not surprisingly, considering its long history, the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo has been responsible for many innovations over the years in the presentation of rodeo, including the first indoor rodeo, and the first presentation of Brahman bull riding.
So what can you expect from the current version of an event with such a rich legacy? Well, for starters, three weeks' worth of rodeo action, of course, including the ProRodeo tournament as well as the likes of Bulls' Night Out extreme bull riding, the Best of the West ranch rodeo, the Best of Mexico Celebración and the Cowboys of Color rodeo show. But there's much more beyond that. Livestock shows include everything from cattle and goats to pigeons and poultry. There are lots of live music performances, from country to mariachi music, plus Western music and cowboy poetry. Wine and beer makers host events based around their crafts. Onsite food vendors offer no shortage of menu items to satisfy every taste. And when you patronize the rodeo, you're also supporting a nonprofit organization that's been responsible for donating huge amounts of money to foster the future of agriculture and livestock rearing.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Ranch rodeo was very entertaining as always
by Arenawer on 1/19/15Will Rogers Coliseum - Fort WorthHave been going for 14 years we like it better than the regular rodeo(although it's great to) because it's more like what we do everyday
Rating: 2 out of 5 Not very entertaining
by ctbo on 2/14/14Will Rogers Coliseum - Fort WorthIt might be nice for people who are really interested in the stockyards, but as far as general entertainment it's not very exciting. Small and crowded place, not many food options, no concerts, definitely nothing to justify the price of the ticket!

Rating: 3 out of 5by Anonymous on 2/11/14Will Rogers Coliseum - Fort Worth Rodeo was entertaining, especially on the last night of the event. Bull riding, Bronc riding, Barrel Racing, etc...finals for all of the events. Definitely a fun event for the family and friends...although they should get Whiplash (the dog-riding monkey) back to perform at intermission.
Rating: 5 out of 5by Anonymous on 2/10/14Will Rogers Coliseum - Fort Worth The event was awesome. My 6 yr old grandson enjoyed the display of horsemanship, the bull riding and the calf chase. Every rodeo person was very hospitable and helpful. We will be back next year
Rating: 5 out of 5 Amazing as always!!!!
by Riowestern on 2/6/14Will Rogers Coliseum - Fort WorthI attended the rodeo on Feb.1 with my family. It was truly amazing! I've gone the past few years and it gets better every time. There is something for everyone. I am very in to the rodeo and the surrounding lifestyle, and so I enjoy everything. Even the less western members of my family found things they liked. I would highly recommend this rodeo to anyone!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Awesome Rodeo Performance
by Roadeo on 2/4/14Will Rogers Coliseum - Fort WorthThe PRCA rodeo was really great. There was a great intermission performance that was western themed with a father taking his son through how things were in the old west. From the traditional rodeo events such as barrel racing and bull riding, to the non traditional such as wagon races, calf scramble, trick horse riding, etc this rodeo had it all!

by CactusJane on 2/4/14Will Rogers Coliseum - Fort WorthI went to the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo just to hear the Joe Ely Band at the Coors Rodeo Roadhouse. It was a smoking hot show! Joe and his ace band put on a fabulous performance from start to finish.
