“North Americas richest wild card rodeo”, finished Sunday with events canceled Monday due to cash crunch, all the people I talked to liked the event as they had good horses and bulls.No one seemed disappointed although attendance deemed low, for the singing stars..
I went to one of the three exchange s to the freeway Monday and counted 35 vehicles a minute or 2100 an hour, that’s a lot of cars going by. Maybe advertising was in-house and local posters. Comments from a person that helped supply horses from North Dakota ( horses from Lac la Biche Alberta) said the event should have been a jackpot event on the last day meaning the profits go to last day prizes.

This bus from last season is fitted with sleepers like morgue slabs a little confining for my taste however the end may prove the means for the people who came all that way and going all that way. None seen as yet this year we wonder if it was new or untried and whether they will return.
