Tomorrow is the last day of the rodeo. Pretty positive we're going. Had anyone been on the last day? I heard a rumor that a lot of the merch & food was sold really cheap on the last day to get rid of it. Any truth to that? 4951

some yes. Your good high quality merchandise no.  most that come to the HLSR are like traveling gypsies.  They go from show to show all over the country.  Now local ones might and food yes.But get ready the crowds are usually really high on the last day.  Records numbers always. 4951

I wish I could go again. Even though its a huge crowd my daughter did well once she got past the crowd and started petting animals and stuff. She really enjoyed herself. We had free tickets and could only go on a Monday night(we saw REO) so had to rush the outside stuff which is where she had the most fun. If I had the extra cash I would take her back for more time in the carnival area and skip the concert. 4951

@Okiedokie: Same here....I haven't been since they quit comping the trail riders who brought much FREE PUBLICITY to the event every year....I thought that was tacky at best, and so I spend my money at other events instead...Plus, IMO, the rodeo is a "rural country" type of event...As such, I expect to see most all "rural country" type of events and things there...I expect it to only have "country" music acts, especially "local" country bands...If I want a POP concert, I'd just go to the Cynthia Mitchell Pavillion or other venue...But, again, just my opinion.... 4951

If you go have lots of cash...a corn dog and coke will cost you a 20 spot.....LOL And dont get anything you will want to bring into the concert area, there is another check through there and they wont let you bring any of your left overs in with you including that 4 buck bottled coke or 8 buck left over cotton candy you just purchased outside in the carnival area 10 minutes before......LOL. 4951

We aren't going. Emoticon 60% chance of t-storms from 2-6pm & they close down the rides when it rains. Totally bummed. 4951

We went this year.  It is getting way to expensive dropped over 100 on parking, drinks (mostly water, no alcohol) and one meal for 3.  No rides, no other purchases.  That is in addition to the ticket cost. 4951

@Zephard: Family of 4, not including price of tickets which we got free, cost us all around 250.00  and we bought very little, we all ate light, got extra popcorn and cotton candy, hubby got one beer and we bought my daughter a cheesy fake light saber.
