This is the 19th annual Bullfest, so grab a good seat by 7 p.m. to watch the exciting six and under mutton bustin’. Any youngster who wants to ride a sheep should sign up between 6:30 and 7 p.m. Entry fee is $10 per rider.
Bullfest admission is $10 in advance and $15 at the gate. Children are $5 in advance and $10 at the gate. Those age five and under are free.
Advance tickets available at Fenoglio Boot Store, Conoco One Stop in Nocona, Fuel World in Nocona and The Gas Station in Saint Jo. As an added bonus your tickets will save your 15% on your next order at Fenoglio Boots.
The Saint Jo High cheerleaders will be providing concessions for Bullfest and parking cars.
Along with mutton bustin’ there will be a calf scramble and a lady’s steer scramble. The main event will feature a patriotic flag presentation, some of the best bullriders from around the country, an invitational junior bull riding, all atop bulls from Big L Rodeo Company, Locke Bucking Bulls and more.
After all the exciting rodeo action enjoy the concert/dance with Gabe Choate, born and raised in Graham. He got his start in the music business in the early 1990s and soon realized the strong roots of country music were calling him. He currently has two singles out and is recording an album.
