What is the largest rodeo in the world?
Cowboys
Cowboys and the Wild West are part of Alberta’s western heritage. Calgary, for example, is nicknamed Cowtown. Every year since 1912, the city holds the largest rodeo in the world, the Calgary Stampede. In 2012, it drew more than one 1,4 million spectators. The city is also home to the Saddledome, a stadium with a suspended roof shaped like a saddle. (Source: Calgary Stampede official website.)
Wrong! Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is largest on the planet. 1.4 million? How cute. HLSR attendance is about 2.5 million per year.
The Calgary Stampede is 10 days long with 1.4 million in attendance. Houston is 20 days long with 2.5 million. They would be about equal attendance if they ran for equal amount of days with Calgary edging out Houston.
How cute. Screw off Davey Boy! Typical American attitude.
