Inside the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo with CEO Chris Boleman

Описание: The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo is the world’s largest event of its kind. It has been around since 1932, showcasing generations of agricultural tradition, awarding millions of dollars in scholarship money, presenting concerts, selling western wear, and offering just about every food imaginable that you could deep fry on a stick. We talk with Chris Boleman, President and CEO of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, about the mission of the event, what’s new at Rodeo Houston this year, how they choose the entertainment lineup, and the commitment of the 36,000 volunteers that make the show happen.
