Yeah Deasons over 5 years agoBootheel Rodeo by TajLVI was driving from New Orleans up to Chicago and just as I crossed into Missouri, I heard an announcement on the radio for the Sikeston Bootheel Rodeo. I didn’t think I’d be able to find a room or tickets on short notice, but I lucked upon a motel which still had a vacancy and tickets were not hard to come by. The rodeo itself was fun, especially the bull riding, but the real treat came at the end when a huge 16-wheeler rolled out into the arena and the trailer unfolded into a stage. I got to see a concert as part of the admission, and the performer was none other than Ronnie Milsap, one of my favs at the time. If only for the rodeo, I recommend Sikeston (which the locals pronounce “Sakston”). over 5 years agoRodeos by redrobin1181My family attended a couple rodeos here when I was young. It was truly an entertaining experience, and the first year we felt very out of place wearing sneakers and sandals instead of cowboy boots. It was a fun time nonetheless. over 6 years agoSikeston Missouri is cool! by CHARLEY1973sikeston missouri is cool! over 6 years agoSee all 7 entries |
