Independent Journalism in Denver Needs You
We need to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
The thing that surprises me most about Denver is how there’s a rodeo for every occasion. Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t it seem like cowboys are doing their respective bucking and jiving every Secretary’s Day, full moon and third Thursday of the month? It’s crazy! Are these hoedowns really buck-wild enough to warrant this kind of attention?
Today’s the day to find out. Starting at 5:30 p.m. at the Cattleman’s Club, 4655 Humboldt Street, Bulls, Buckles and Brawn provides the perfect (and charitable, to boot) excuse to experience the Western heritage I’ve so clearly been missing. Tickets, $125, include all-day access to the Western Stock Show, a live and silent auction, a buffet BBQ dinner and then, at 7:30, the Professional Bull Riders Rodeo. All proceeds benefit the Rocky Mountain chapter of the American Liver Foundation. For more information, check out www.liverfoundation.org.
