| Summary: | Move over Ringling Brothers - the 'Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth' is about to get underway. In July, the world's best cowboys compete in the Calgary Stampede. It's a ten-day extravaganza celebrating the nearly century-long pioneering spirit of the 'Wild West' in Alberta, Canada. From bull riding to barrel racing, steer wrestling and calf roping, it's a non-stop action. Perhaps the greatest athletic muscle is put to the test in the Chuck Wagon races - ten nights of thundering horses pulling wagons, and drivers who truly risk their lives to be the first to the finish. |
