Not sure why I took this picture but it's the Grand Champion Steer that sold for $90k. It was a girl from Lindale that showed it.

At $90K for that steer, those porterhouse stakes must be at least $1000 each. Hope there good! :D

You HAVE to have a funnel cake or it's not the state fair, stock show, etc!

Tell Amanda that pigs make very good pets. We had one. A "friend" gave my daughter one for an Easter present. We had to beat hell out of my cowdogs for awhile, but they finally accepted him. He was just like one of the family. We rode horseback everyday and he would follow along with the dogs. We even had him neutered when we had some of the horses gelded. He ate dry dog food with the dogs and we fed him oreo cookies and cheese and crackers.
