 |
| Adam watching the chuck wagon races on the monitor We weren't really sure what was all involved with the Stampede. We watched a bunch of races and then found out there were still plenty of heats still to go, so we decided to leave the grand stands to get some food and explore. |

| The scale was impressive. There were things going on all over the place. |
