The What About Bob Chuckwagon Races is a multi-day event held annually on the Ward Ranch near Wilburton, Oklahoma. Scout and I camped out on the ranch along with many others. There were a number of food and other vendors but no Verizon phone service. I didn't have Starlink yet so had to drive into Wilburton in order to upload and publish content that week.
Now that I do have Starlink service I would love to come back and attempt to do a live-stream coverage if that is acceptable to the head honchos. New videos from 2922 are still being published every Thursday and can be viewed below.

The ABC Pro Rodeo Week is held the last week of March at the Mallet Event Center in Levelland, Texas. There is a BBQ cook-off and four rodeos including the matinee on Saturday. My schedule did not allow me to document all the public activities giving me a good reason for visiting again!
I have started publishing videos on Saturdays and will share some examples below starting with 78 kids trying out for berths in the Mutton Bustin' events during the rodeos. The tryouts were held on Saturday before rodeo week and the top 30 riders were selected to compete in the rodeos.

I was elementary school age when I was totally impressed with the number of watermelons on hand at the beginning of August in Dalhart, Texas for the "World's Largest Barbeque Feed". The XIT Rodeo & Reunion is held annually on the first weekend in August.
