The bright lights, the sounds of people yelling to go faster and the excitement of the anticipation of being the next in line to enjoy the thrill. The midway is a large part of the Stampede experience, when I was a kid I spent hours dragging my Dad from ride to ride, eagerly waiting to be tall enough to ride. Now I am tall enough to ride and still love to go from ride to ride to experience the thrill. It’s one of the ways We Ride Together.
