More stupidity. Wyoming has one of the lowest infection and death rates.
Wasn't it also one of the states with suggestions, but no lockdowns?
Probably going to cancel our rodeo too...pure bs.

I have a lot of family in Cheyenne, that's a shame. That event is the biggest thing the whole year. Mind you, it can snow in June there!

Calgary stampede was canceled also from what I understand, I wonder if the Los Angeles county fair will go off this year? I suppose county fairs all over the country are being canceled.☹️

It is amazing how much this changes state by state. I buddy of mine left being a paramedic in california to work as a medic in star valley wy, here in Southern California we are down staffing ambulances, fire apparatus and police departments but yet in wy it is business as usual. According to my buddy, you would never even know covid was a thing out there

Well, shit. This was part of our epic road trip. I'm guessing Longmire Days is not far behind. Either way, we're fucking going to Wyoming & Montana.

That was one event every year that truly helped Cheyenne and other surrounding communities. And to think now it won't happen purely out of this media-pushed fear agenda...... it's a damn shame.

Was talking to a buddy of mine in Wyoming and the topic of guns came up, he said: "Wyoming, one of the few states were Conservatives have guns and so do Liberals!"

I wonder if it is a matter of insurance for a lot of these events? People are suing over contracting COVID. Liability insurance is probably eye watering.

I think many of us would agree, I would bet my bottom dollar that it wasn't the cowboys and girls that let this get shut down. Insurance and political pressure are the best guesses.

Wife's in event planning and cooperate sponsorship for Frontier Days main sponsor. Shes been doing it for 8 years.
Its a blast. My kids and mother in law go up every year with her and get VIP treatment. Its the biggest event of the year in Cheyenne.
Sad deal.. We are bummed.
A bunch of her events have been canceled due to covid.
Frontier Days is the only one giving them back 100% of their sponsorship money.
