It's Rodeo Time in Houston and it doesn't matter what part of the city you live in or what kind of music you listen to, you will be effected by the Rodeo.  It is one of the largest businesses in Houston and brings in more money than all of our sports teams combined!  Did you hear(read) that?  That means, more than the Rockets, Aeros, Dynamo, Astros and Texans and rodeo seats are a lot more affordable.
The beautiful part is that the Rodeo is comprised of over 24,000 volunteers, who actually pay to be on a Committee, now how about that for a business model?!  And, let's not forget they give over $8.5 million in Scholarships to Texas Youth who want to go to college (in Texas, of course).  The Carnival Tickets Sales Committee is a huge asset to the rodeo bringing in over $4.25 million in Scholarship money.  Help someone go to college, while putting a smile on you or your child's face...Purchase your half-price carnival packs TODAY.  Offer Ends Saturday 2/25/12.

Cookoff starts on Thursday, Feb. 23rd and will have over 220,000 people attend.  Make sure you're ahead of the game and buy your Cookoff tickets today so you're not the loser in line for an hour trying to get in, while we're all inside eatin' and drinkin' with the Crown Royal girls!

The Livestock Show and Rodeo kicks off on Tuesday, Feb. 28th with Alabama!  People come in from all over the World to see our Livestock Show and Rodeo and Volunteer Committee Members in the International Committee help welcome all of the dignitaries from different Countries.  You thought the traffic around the South Loop was bad at 5 o'clock, well get ready for a month of traffic from 3 pm on.  But don't you worry - if you're trying to get out to the rodeo, they have created a new App for your smartphone that will allow you to see real-time traffic, best routes and the parking lot status.
