July 16, 2012 Now that the CWFR has come and gone, we thought it would behoove us to "take to the streets" and find out what YOU thought of the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo. Here's what we learned: People love The Power, adults are more shy than kids, and bulls are A-holes. Don't believe us? Check out these vids and let us know what YOU loved about the CWFR.
July 15, 2012 Mmm. Fair food is my absolute favorite kind of food in the world. I spent the entire week at the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, and ate an inordinate amount of fair food. I ate burgers, and hot dogs, and corn dogs, and bbq, and funnel cake, and curly fries and ice cream. It was the greatest week of my life. Here are some pictures.
July 15, 2012 All my life, I've wanted to be a carnival worker (carnie, for short). I'm not exactly sure why- maybe it's the art of the sell, or the allure of taking people's money because they're too stupid to stop playing. Maybe I just like cat-calling people. Whatever the reason, I've always wanted to be one. That will never happen, so I resigned myself to just meeting a few of them at this year's Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo.
July 15, 2012 It's been a wild ride at the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, and we totally intended for that pun. This is because the Rodeo part of the CWFR has been a roller coaster (or a bull ride?) of emotions. There were winners, losers, dreams chases,dreams realized, and dreams crushed as men and women put i all on the line for their shot at glory. Here are just a few photos from the CWFR Finals.
July 15, 2012 It's been a heckuva week for the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo. All sorts of people came out to ride rides, eat good (but not good for you) food, throw up on their friends, watch the rodeo and more. Here are some pics from the final night of the CWFR.
July 11, 2012 When Chelsea Strama came to Casper with her company for the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, she had no idea what local beauty awaited her. As she saw the amazing sites that our town had to offer, she knew that she needed to record some of it for prosperity...and to show highlights during the rodeo itself!
June 19, 2012 The 100th Wyoming State Fair and Rodeo is accepting local entries from Wyoming cowboys and cowgirls to participate in the 2012 PRCA Rodeo.
June 17, 2012 Is there anything better than watching some of the toughest guys and gals from all around rope, steer, ride, and wrestle some of the toughest animals from all around? No, there isn't. Which is why every year the College National Finals Rodeo is always such a hit. This year was no different. Check out some of these pics from the CNFR Championship.
June 17, 2012 The Casper Events Center was packed to the roof on Saturday, as fans of the College National Finals Rodeo gathered for the championship. Dreams were achieved, hearts were broken, but we all came together to witness a night that was truly memorable. Here are some pics of those that were in attendance.
June 17, 2012 Of course, when the rodeo comes to town, you're almost guaranteed to see a plethora of the biggest, baddest, gaudiest belt buckles ever. Some depict a certain victory, others are just for show, but they all catch the eye of everyone around them. Here are a few of our favorites from the 2012 College National Finals Rodeo.
June 15, 2012 One of the best parts about the College National Finals Rodeo is all of the stuff you can buy there! Vendors from all over gather, with the sole intent of selling you hats, belts, belt buckles, pants, shirts, ropes, saddles and more!
It's like the greatest cowboy stores you could ever visit, all in one place! Don't believe us? Check out these pics from the CNFR vendors, and tell us that we're wrong...Hint: We're not.
June 15, 2012 What do Wyomingites like more- Baseball or Rodeo? It's an age-old adage, but if you ask anyone who was at the Casper Events Center this week, Rodeo will be the overwhelming answer. It has everything- horses, bulls, bull riding, bull roping, wrestling, and more! The College National Finals Rodeo came to Casper, and if these pictures are any indication, it left an indelible mark on Casper Rodeo fans.
