		<description>TNK- It&#039;s not so bad. I have grown to appreciate Greeley for what it is and what it has (and doesn&#039;t) . The Stampede is definitely one of the biggest events for Greeley- probably the only time tourists or visitors come to Greeley if they don&#039;t know someone here. I&#039;m sure it&#039;s different if for people if they are just visiting compared to living here our whole lives. 

Celina- I&#039;ve gone to quite a few rodeos and they are definitely worth seeing at least once to get a taste of the Wild West. I kind of find some of the rodeo activities a little rough on the animals (like the calf-roping) and between events it is kind of slow. When I was in Mexico I saw a bullfight too, to experience the culture -and that was even worse- watching the bull die in the ring. Rodeo is actually a Spanish term for the &quot;rounding up&quot; in the ring.

I have yet to try the fried snickers (or SNEAKERS! :-) or other strange concoctions...but I have had funnel cakes (fried dough) and a few of the other mainstays like cotton candy. At least it&#039;s only here once a year (unlike McDonalds etc) or we&#039;d (society) have even worse food-related health problems!</description>
