Also, before the show, visitors can enjoy the cowboy comedy of Skeeter. A real American stampede would not be complete without the majestic buffalo, and the American animal stampede around the arena is something you’ll never forget. The show concludes with a patriotic finale with plenty of sparkles and red, white, and blue.
