We'll be there Sat-Mon. Only got tickets for the final perf on Sunday. Any great recommendations on somewhere to go watch it Saturday? Fave places to eat in the area? Etc... 

Thanks!

You can't make a trip to D/FW without seeing the Stockyards. I would think the establishments there would have The American televised.  You may also want to go to Teskey's in Weatherford on Saturday, or even NRS in Decatur.  They have a little bit of everything.  

Oh - fav places to eat:  H3 Steakhouse, Cattlemen's, Riscky's, all in the Stockyards

We are here too and staying in the Stockyards.  Ditto to the places to eat.  Most places have RFD to televise Saturday.  

If you want to get out of town a little bit you have Teskeys, NRS, and Paul Taylor’s.  We make sure to visit Paul Taylor’s and stock up on things like reins, headstalls, etc.  great prices and quality. 

The Patriot is also going on now.  I’m not sure what the Saturday schedule looks like, but they have some vendors there as well.

Drive out to Weatherford and go to Teskeys or even the Horsemans Supply. I havent been to Paul Taylors yet. I need to make a trip there. Too bad we couldnt get a group of BHW people that are going to meet up at the rodeo. My husband and I will be there both days. 

Tons of thing to do between Dallas/Ft. Worth. Like mentioned huge western/tack stores and the stockyards.  Also, non-rodeo stuff, I think the Mavericks are in town the weekend, but the Stars are not, museums, etc.  Ft Worth has one of the best zoos in the nation.  The water garden in downtown Ft. Worth is kind of cool (and free). 

NRS and NRS Trailer in Decatur, Fort Worth Stockyards.  We will be there Fri - Mon. and also have tickets for just Sunday.  Tesky's is having a huge tent sale so we are going there this year instead of NRS.

Come see me in the Fan Zone and do some shopping

Whatcha gonna have?

All sorts of rustic home decor and longhorn skulls

OOOOOOooooo, thats my kind of shopping, I love buying things for the house and yard..I'm into Rustic... 

What's the name of your booth?

J82 Art Studio

I think pretty much all the shopping will be on the East Plaza (the end with the big mirror disc statue).

I'll for sure look for you!

Joe T’s for margaritas and Mexican food

Take cash - they don't take cards. 

Billy Bob's Texas is a place to check out! It is an awesome honky tonk in the Stockyards, they usually have a good live band playing, food, shopping etc. We ate at Riscky's BBQ and it was great food! 

We are headed there for lunch!

We went to Teskeys yesterday and didn’t really see a sale?  Picked up some stuff at ok prices, but could have done better at Paul’s

for clothes and boots we went to the Justin Discount Boot store and did well on pants and shirts for my husband and new cowboy hats.

Well that's disappointing. I've never been to Tesky's and was looking forward to it.

I think the tent sale is for the weekend. I used to live just down the road from Teskeys for a short timne, I just went there when I was bored lol. Everything was cheaper than it is back here in IL at home. It's good to go, it's giant. Even if things aren't on sale, I think it's worth a trip anyway. Might find that one thing you jsut can't go home without 

We made it to Teskys, didn't even go in the tent because we were running late and didn't have much time before they closed.  Would have liked to really look around but mostly just breezed through.  It's back on the list of things to do next year and we will make sure we get there earlier.

I did make a purchase at NRS, new headstall and breastcollar.

Mostly drank too much and stayed out way to late, lol.  Sunday was a blast at the American.  Can't wait till next year!
