Ft Worth steer show

We are going to the Ft Worth steer show for the first time this year.  Do any pros out there have any good advice, other than to stay at home! lol  By the way, I really like this site....alot of interesting comments and information.  Thanks in advance.

If you have not booked a hotel you need to do it quickly because the Superbowl will be in Dallas during the Fort Worth show.

Like JOC said you need to get a room if you haven't already. Other than that its a pretty laid back show.

I thought I had already replied to this, but I guess it didn't post correctly so I apologize if it is double posted...I was just wondering what the wait in line to check in is like.  Is it pretty much like the heifers or is it worse? Thanks.

Not to hikack your thread, but on a related note:  Does the exhibitor have to walk the heifer through at check in?  Trying to figure out how to work this with a high school musical performance on the same day as check in for the jr. show.

As far as I know you can get other kids or parents to help walk the calves through the sift.  We had some kids last year that couldn't make it to the sift in time and we ask the cattle sup. and they said it was ok.

No, anybody can check in your heifer as long as they have the original papers.

Thanks.  That will make things easier.  Now I just have to drive through the night. LOL

Where will you be coming from?
