Come hell or high water beat the odds!
by Anonymous on 7/16/13Stampede Grandstand - CalgaryWe saw the rodeo on opening day 7/5. Great weather; midway up and running; you couldn't tell there had been a flood! Then the heavens opened up with a huge four hour gulley-washer. We sought refuge in the car and waited until the last minute for the chuckwagon races and the grand stand show. The show went on. The cloud burst ended, and I was amazed at how the tech crew got the grounds, stage and area ready for the Grandstand Show. Simply jaw dropping experience-complete with singers in the air, pianos in the air with fireworks, and great singing and dancing.
