Canada: Calgary Stampede kicks up its heels

Share via

There is something for just about everyone at the Calgary Stampede, as this photo gallery by Los Angeles Times photographer Al Seib shows: parades, midway rides and thrilling rodeo events. Think of it as an enormous state fair with a world-class rodeo attached. The event, which began last week and runs through Sunday, overcame historic flooding on its grounds for this 101st annual celebration of cowboy culture and Canadian life.
