On the 4th of July we did something rather un-American for my American niece and took her to the Stampede in Calgary. My brother Dan and his wife Glenda joined in. We walked the midway a bit, had a nice Western lunch and then went to
We went to the Calgary Stampede about a week ago. We had a blast! We rode the C-train (the transit train) in, and December absolutely loved that. The first thing we did when we arrived on the Stampede grounds was go to see the Superdogs
More than 300000 people and about the same number of cowboy hats lined the streets of Calgary to catch the Stampede parade on Friday. The parade marks the official start of the 96th Calgary Stampede, billed as the greatest outdoor
One can't truly appreciate the overall Calgary Stampede without working behind the scenes. The ridiculous hours that are worked, the ridiculous crowds, the rowdy dudes and the constant noise, the last minute orders, the oddities that
Wednesday we went back to the stampede and watched the Rodeo in the afternoondid some midway stuff/trade show stuffand then went to the chuckwagon races and the grandstand show - which was really weird!

I ended up with Calgary Stampedes John Wayne. I got on him in Edmonton at the Canadian Finals last fall and knew just how good of a draw he was. I was 85.5 on him today and that was good enough for a second place.

The Calgary Stampede is a gong show. For an entire week some businesses basically shut down to head out and treat their clients and staff to endless free breakfasts, corporate parties, company functions and even the rodeo.

The Calgary Stampede finishes this Sunday and I have done my usual trick of avoiding the Stampede at all costs. I usually go to the rodeo or chuckwagon races with IBI, but this year even a free ticket couldnt convince me to go sit in
The Calgary Stampede is a big draw around here. Myron said it's the largest rodeo in the world and has million dollar prizes - but he was concerned that organized crime was gradually moving in. Myron noted that much of Calgary is high
It's the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, and after being raised in Calgary, it's easy to dismiss the annual tradition as the 'same ol' story'. With that said, the Calgary Stampede is like Christmas in July for rodeo and carnival goers

GIDDY UP!
With almost a million people now living in the metropolitan area, Calgary has made a firm place for itself in Canadas economy. Calgary is home to hundreds of oil companies, the Calgary Stampede (one of Canadas biggest annual events)
It was time to see what all the hype was about with the Calgary Stampede. There were literally hundreds of thousands of people flocking to Calgary for the 10-day Rodeo/show. We had tickets for the Chuckwagon Races & Main show on
As most of you already know, Jay Osborne has not been my favourite part of the Calgary Stampede. In fact, up until Sunday I would have rather been branded like cattle than spend any time with him. But with the Stampede coming to an end
Billing as the largest outdoor display, on Earth, the Calgary stampede, providing a wealth of stimulating: to expose domestic manufacturers, cattle on horseback, driving wrestling, calf rope, but most heart-stopping, and chuck wagon
And thats how an old Calgary Stampede girl like me came to be surrounded by cowboys, horse trailers, and cowgirls. Next to us a couple groomed 2000 lb. Percherons. The farmers market was inside a big chilly barn.

Please sign this petition & let the Calgary Stampede know that you want a BAN on Calf Roping. Hopefully this cruel "sport" will be banned by Stampede 2009. Last year the Second Largest Rodeo in Canada, The Cloverdale rodeo in BC Banned
January 25, 2009. Come and visit our booth and see what exciting new products WG is Launching!www.theweddingfair.ca for tickets or event information.
The first stampede took place in 1912 and drew large numbers of competitors and more than 100000 spectators. Visitors to the modern ten day annual July event usually total more than a million, and a further two million viewers tune in
However, to the average Calgarian, the words "the Calgary Stampede" refer to the event, not the organization. The busiest and most celebrated time of year remains those 10 days in July when we receive over a million visitors from all

Jim Prentice - 2008 Stampede Breakfast
CALGARY - If you're thinking about hitching the wagons and heading to Calgary for Stampede this year but concerned about the cost, one thing you definitely don't have to worry about is breakfast. The annual 10-day salute to all things
The Stampede breakfast has been a tradition since the 1923 (the first Stampede was in 1912). The first breakfast was started cowboy-style, with a driver bringing a chuckwagon full of grub to the middle of town and serving up pancakes
We started off at the kids stampede breakfast at the Grandstand, then it was off to some interviews from other media stations, then for a bite to eat, and finally a full blown rodeo experience with a behind the scenes tour.
