SAN ANTONIO \u2013 \u201cLet\u2019s Rodeo, San Antonio!\u201d<\/p>\n
The San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo is still going strong with 100 FREE things to do on the fairgrounds.<\/p>\n
Our crews at KSAT stopped by the rodeo to check out a few of those free things, and they started with a rodeo selfie. <\/p>\n
Snap the Perfect Rodeo Selfie<\/p>\n
You don\u2019t want to miss a photo-op with the iconic \u201cLet\u2019s Rodeo\u201d sign. <\/p>\n
Conveniently located at the entrance, it\u2019s the perfect backdrop for selfies, family pictures and group shots to mark the occasion.<\/p>\n
When the KSAT crew stopped by, they got a picture with Cavvietta Cowgirl Snow Lopez, who shared some of her favorite free attractions on the grounds.<\/p>\n
\u201cSome of the hotspots that I\u2019ve liked so far is the pig races. I\u2019ve never seen a pig race before, so seeing that was pretty cool. The petting zoo. I have a funny farm back home, so I\u2019m missing my animals,\u201d Lopez said.<\/p>\n
Animal Encounters – No Extra Charge<\/p>\n
The petting zoo is free, giving you the chance to get up close with friendly farm animals. <\/p>\n
And if you want to get up close and personal with more animals, visitors can gently hold baby chicks just steps away at \u201cAnimal Adventures.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cYou put your hand out like this, and you want his feet to sit on top. It\u2019s gentle. It\u2019s just like cupping it,\u201d one handler explained as guests carefully held the tiny birds.<\/p>\n
And yes, the baby goats are ready for their close-up too. <\/p>\n
Check Out Your \u201cNext Ride\u201d<\/p>\n
Thinking about upgrading your vehicle? Stop by the Ford display to browse the latest models. It\u2019s free to look, just don\u2019t plan on driving off the lot.<\/p>\n
A Sweet Adventure<\/p>\n
One of the most colorful stops is the rodeo\u2019s free mini candy maze. Families can walk through at no cost, weaving their way through shelves of sugary treats.<\/p>\n
Just one thing to remember: while entry into the maze is free, the candy is not. Guests can collect their favorites in a basket and pay at checkout.<\/p>\n
Free Live Music<\/p>\n
Not far from the candy maze, you can catch free live music performances that keep the energy high across the grounds.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhether this is your first rodeo or you grew up in agriculture, we have something for everyone, and it\u2019s affordable. So that makes it even better,\u201d Lopez said.<\/p>\n
Mechanical Bull Rides<\/p>\n
Feeling brave? You can even hop on the mechanical bull in the courtyard.<\/p>\n
