90-minutes of magic, mind reading, and wonder involving six mysterious boxes as they are shuffled and opened one by one. This is the only mind reading show in Fort Worth; the small venue and limited audience size mean that you won’t just be watching the magic: you’ll be a part of it. Grab an award-winning single malt whisky, bourbon, gin, vodka, or rum and join Magician and Mentalist Grant Price as he presents "Kind of Makes You Wonder" - an experience that goes far beyond hiding scarves up sleeves and guessing which card you picked. Call the baby-sitter, grab your significant other, and call your friends because this is an experience you don’t want to miss. Your mind will be blown, you will laugh, and, yes, you'll wonder.
Grant Price puts on an incredible and intimate magic show. The crowd work is fun, the tricks are amazing, and his personality makes the show a blast. The show is the perfect length, and the venue is fantastic. I cannot recommend this show enough.

See a mini cattle drive (daily).
If you’re in Fort Worth (and definitely if you’re already at the Stock Yards), you have to see the cattle drive/herd. It’s just fun! Pair the experience with the historical walking tour (tickets available at the Maze kiosk), and you’ve got a great Stock Yards experience!

My husband, son, and I attended the Friday night Stockyards Rodeo at Cowtown Coliseum and had a blast. It was our first rodeo and did not disappoint. There were cowboys, cowgirls, and rodeo clowns. There was bull riding, barrel racing, and calf roping (which was the only thing we didn’t like because they are too rough with those little calves). The commentator does an excellent job explaining what is happening to the audience. The highlight of the rodeo was my 11 year old winning the cattle scramble. He outran 60 other kids to pull a piece of tape off of a calf. He won a first place ribbon, 20% off coupon to the rodeo gift shop (which is great by the way), and two kids tickets to the rodeo or Pawnee Bill’s Wild West Show. Sadly, we didn’t get to use the coupons because we went back home the next day. It was a fantastic experience all around! *Here’s a few tips*: I’d recommend getting to the rodeo about 45 minutes to an hour or so before it starts if you are purchasing general admission seats. General admission seats are first come first served. I really don’t think that there is a bad in the house, though. Also, their food was delicious and affordable. My son and I had chili cheese dogs and loaded nachos that were yummy. If you’re on a diet, you probably want to eat elsewhere, though. The gift shop was great and included everything from toys to pottery to jewelry to mugs and magnets, etc. I spent a small fortune in there. Great selection of items and reasonably priced. Lastly, if you buy the $3 rodeo program book upon entrance, you have a chance to win a free pair of boots. Apparently, they give away a free pair of boots each night to the person who has the lucky number found in the program. If you are visiting Fort Worth on Friday or Saturday night, the Stockyards Rodeo is a must! After the rodeo, there was a live band playing in front of the Cowtown Coliseum that sounded great! Also, on the night we went, you could go to the Diamond Rio concert at Billy Bob’s for free just by showing your rodeo ticket. Overall, the Stockyards Rodeo was great and did not disappoint!

I haven’t been to a drive in theater since I was a teenager.What great memories it brought back. If I lived in the area I’d probably go a few times a month. It cost $8 for 2 movies & they offered a good variety from children movies to comedy to drama to horror. Something for everyone. We bought popcorn & soda from the concession stand for a reminder of the old times. The 1st movie started about 7:30 then there was intermission and the next movie started around 10:00.

This is a great show for the whole family. The show has the best trick roper in Texas, The trick riders ladies include a 8 Year girl name Kodi Anne, and she is so cute and darning. There are Buffalos and an Indian Dancer, Whip cracking and lots of shooting. The even have a wheel of death, were someone is strapped on a huge wheel and its spun around and then they shot balloon's that are around the person. Its great fun for everyone. The out of town guests will love this show. It's an hour long, and fast moving. remember to bring your camera.
