come on now let's do this
alrighty well good afternoon good afternoon everyone welcome to another video today
we've got people my dad daniel samuel the canadian cowboy in the back seat
and myself and you might notice we are wearing some strange outfits that is because we're going
to our first ever rodeo and we weren't quite sure what to put on let's be serious guys i've
got some imposter syndrome going on here in the back but i'm having fun and i've got a little
gaucho hat from argentina channeling my inner argentine cowboy this hat was a gift when we did
the horse trek in cordoba and well we're driving to the aeg grounds the agricultural grounds
where apparently this event is taking place over the course of four days
we are going on a friday afternoon evening because it's been so hot this summer that i don't think we
could be out there at 12 noon oh no way it's 5 30 and uh we got the ac going full and still you feel
the heat it's really warm in southern alberta it sure is and well we're arriving a little bit early
like before the professional event starts at 6 30 we've got the pro rodeo with the bulls um but we
also want to check out the grounds and like see what the whole experience is all about so yeah
it's around 5 15 now we're getting close to the grounds and we'll bring you along our first rodeo
alrighty so we just got stamped in little
canadian not a flag it's a maple leaf maple leaf 20 bucks per person yeah in we go here we go
cheers you too cheers cheers are we doing cooling down already yeah we need to it's so hot
we found the shade we're working on it working on it you know what happened there is a tractor
there that is uh irrigating the ground and we decided to irrigate inside ourselves that's it
it's going around a little bit like the zamboni like oh i thought i'm the lucky
ring this is pretty funny out of here but yeah i've got kokanee you've got coors i got a course
glacier fresh beer yeah this ice cold that's the best part and we've noticed they they do burgers
and nachos and chili and stuff just down there so we're we're working up an appetite yeah yeah don't
worry we'll have some food too we'll head down that way soon i've got a double cheeseburger we
both got them how is it very good very good good stuff we're gonna put the cameras down and enjoy
it oh yeah yeah ice cream o'clock that didn't take us very long at all waffle cone yeah strawberry
these look amazing from the muslic and we asked the girl who was serving um you know how did you
get the idea and it's from molly their pet moose who was born out on their farm and stuck around
stuck around so molly the moose is named the brand is named after molly the moose all right how's the
ice cream there's melted that's a lot about the moose oh this incredible giant chocolate chips
really intense oh it's peanut butter cup chocolate chips yeah very reasonably priced too at five
dollars we could've got a double scoop for seven really generous waffle cone i love it
oh
here we go
how's it going you two oh it's been fantastic we are taking an intermission intermission a little
break oh man we're digesting the the burgers at the concession were phenomenal big thick alberta
beef double patties real beef real beef you can taste the difference grass-fed cattle anyways
about the rodeo it's just been fantastic i mean it's just so many different events happening
we have kids participating it's nice to see so many different generations get involved
kids young young boys and girls are also allowed to participate so some of the kids have done the
best so far they've been the most impressive yeah they might be what they have nine ten years old
yeah they're not they're not as stiff or rigid at that it's a flexible fluid it's a it's a
nice experience it's a nice event the other thing that's been interesting too is with the announcing
sometimes they'll be announced like this is the third generation participant of this rodeo
my mother just retired and now it's a generational family event you can tell the communities really
come out to support this i mean it's packed we highly recommend it if you have a chance to go see
any rodeo yeah you'll really enjoy it going in search of a different vantage point
and yeah the events just continue we're just getting started here
competition
nice job by the cowboys
come on
we're ready to go
all right guys so we are heading out a little bit early just before the event finishes just because
there's probably over a thousand people in there like it's really crowded i think there's even more
we want to be able to get out of the long run too i wonder if we can even find ourselves yeah
but wow that was a lot of fun quite the introduction to alberta what a welcome
we are learning a lot i mean i didn't even know the names of all the events before we got here
yeah today but man i mean the [ __ ] bowl at the end that's that's how you finish off the night huh
some brave tough people out there kids too kids too so yeah that was great we highly recommend
it we might even come back because there's still two more days of rodeo so yeah but we're getting
in the car and we're gonna figure out how to navigate out of here had a good time how was your
first rodeo oh it was very nice very nice i really enjoyed it it was a family atmosphere yes you know
it really is kind of like just how casual it was you know the kids were playing everyone's just
having a good time no danger for the kids say if they were running around like loose you know like
you see so many kids going everywhere and nobody's worrying about oh maybe something's gonna happen
to the kids or someone is going to harm them you know like none of that around here a completely
different mentality for us coming out of toronto yeah so yeah it's been a big change out this way
but yeah that was a lot of fun we hope you guys enjoyed it we had a good time
and yeah that is it left we are gonna figure out how to get home so see you later bye
you
