I am from Fort Worth. The little cattle drive is reminiscent of the Chisholm Trail of which Fort Worth was a major stop. Millions of cattle were herded through Fort Worth. It's a wonderful city that still has a small town feel
Those are Texas Longhorn cattle, and yes their horns are massive. Joe T Garcia's mexican restaurant nearby is also a must. Other things to do nearby: Fort Worth zoo, botanical gardens, biking along Trinity River, the US Mint (There are only 2 places in the US where paper money is printed: Washington DC and Fort Worth, TX- and the tours are worth the trouble). There are plenty of sport venues, shopping, concerts, restaurants, and museums in the DFW (Dallas -Fort Worth) area. Also Glen Rose has Dinosaur Valley state park where you can see a couple of dinosaur footprints in the riverbed. Enjoy the laidback friendly culture!
Yeah, you're absolutely right. There's really a lot to do in the DFW area, and I made a few of videos on it ... (four I think?) ... but there's so much more. Thanks for the tips!
Some of my family and I have lived in fort worth for generations. We pass by the stockyards daily from down town all the way through main st and 28th st. Back in the 90s lowriders ,hot rods and motorcycles would cruise bumper to bumper on Saturday nights. It was raw,live and wild it was our blvd like the way east LA still does it till this day. Watching the stockyards through outsiders perspectives makes me appreciate where I live a little more . Especially now that Yellowstone is being filmed at this moment its really cool to watch from the side lines.
Nice! I just bought a house in fort worth trails of Elizabeth, how do you like that area. I'm moving from California. I'm excited and I love the stockyards
@@gersongarcia5503 oh yea that's cool! Welcome to Texas! Well I love it its my home town but my goal is to move up north in the future.. I've yet to visit California but I'd love to someday
@@leticiahdz9583 nice, I stayed in fort worth before. California is beautiful, people are the problem. What part of Fort worth are you from, thank for the welcoming comment
Thank you for coming to Fort Worth. I just want out of towners to know that we are not a little bitty city. Fort Worth is a major city but it’s heritage is the wild wild western lifestyle. The stockyards is a small piece of Fort Worth
@@VahidMusictx I guess my “little city” is referring to that central business district and other close rings you may see in an urban planning infographic. I have lived in SF and a few cities on the eastern sea board like New York and Boston so my bar is high for “big city”. And Texas is just so spread out. I love that Fort Worth is growing and poised to develop further! The stockyard revitalization has looked great so far and will probably continue. I think a real game changer would be panther island if that ever comes to fruition. Cheers 🍻
Best guide video of forth worth sotckyards I've seen so far. Thanks man. I'm going here next week and needed an idea of what to expect. I'm more than satisfied with this vid. Thanks again
Great video! The daily cattle drives represent when cattle would be driven from Texas to Oklahoma/Kansas/Missouri for sale. There are cattle drive trails that are now very busy roads in Texas, like 289 aka Preston Road which ends (on the north) at the Texas/Oklahoma border in the town of Preston where the cattle would cross the Red River. Texas history is very interesting!
Thanks. Yes, it's a pretty cool thing to see and learn about the history of it. Whilst it may seem like a normal occurrence in Texas, I've never seen anything like that before. Ironically, I was born (and still reside) in the English city of Preston!
@@UltimateBucketList wow! Yes, how Ironic! 😃 Yes, cattle drives are not common but I hear of a very few still happening when cattle owners move their cattle from one piece of land to another for them to graze on. The Ft Worth Stockyards Cattle Drive is definitely “for show” but a great opportunity to see Texas Longhorn cattle up close. I think they must be pretty old as they barely move along and I guess they aren’t too worried about them charging into the crowd. I’ve never heard of that happening there. I bet that was interesting to ride one!
It's a photographers dream! There's so much to see and do. Get to the cattle parade early in front of the Fort Worth Stockyards sign and you'll have prime position like in the thumbnail (from a fellow photographers point of view!)
Thanks a bunch for this wonderful video . I really want to get there now either with family or friends . Texas is absolutely amazing . Cheers to all there .🙏👍❤️
what i love abt this place is that you can ride a mechanical bull without feeling embarrassed, and plus its even better with audience, and tbh i enjoyed line dancing here than in school
I was looking for cool things to do in FW and I came across this video. I was wondering why is everyone finding a bunch of cows walking on the street as "cool"? Then I realized, I come from India and it is pretty common to see random cows chilling on the streets in any Indian city.
Did my guy just hop on a steer, take a pic, and hop off? Riding includes moving. You got ripped off lol. Cool video though and has helped me plan my trip to the stock yards next week.
It's a fun place, and I think you'll have a good time. With the steer thing ... it's more of a photo opportunity than a riding opportunity. Though there are places you can do that properly away from traffic and stuff like that.
Good advice! It took years to find a hat that fits my weird shaped head and boots that fit my flat feet! Probably should have gone to those places and saved me the trouble.
Are you a wrangler? Rodeo rider? Horse showman? Horse trainer? If not than don't be surprised when some fort worth cowboy tombs you up for wearing something you haven't earned.
The stockyards is FOR tourists. It's not a place natives tend to hang out. And yeah, Risky's is not a good representation of Texas BBQ. It used to be a lot better, but they've kinda gone down hill in the past 5-10 years.
Bob Fort Worth is a growing city with a ton of opportunity. So it stands to reason that plenty of people who immigrate would move there and end up visiting the Stockyards.
Its nice to have a place like the FW Stockyards inside of such a modern city. Slows things down a bit.
Absolutely! Life is a lot more laid back in that part of town.

I'm from Ft. Worth and your presentation reminds me how homesick I am. Thank you for enjoying too.
Thanks Bill. Your city is very interesting and I look forward to going there again! :)
We went there all the way from South Africa, was a highlight!
Absolutely! It's a fun place for sure.
Just went there during my f1 Austin trip. Such a nice and unique place.
Yeah, it's a really nice place to explore! 🙂
I went to this place about 2 years ago and had the best experience. SO much fun!
Absolutely! I agree that this place was really fun. I'd go back there for sure.

Thank you! Yes, I'm aware. I think I went into the actual city of Fort Worth itself and it was nice. But I loved those Stockyards!
I like to describe Fort Worth as a “little” big city. Lived there for 6 years, visited for work quiet frequently.
@@Deemcgee100 Fort Worth is the 12th largest city in America. But it’s interesting that is has a little city feel to it

Used to live in fort worth as a child before moving back to the UK after a few years and this was mad nostalgic
Cool, glad this video brought back memories!
Thanks for stopping by :)

Doing my annual street team photoshoot here this weekend! Class of 2021 is so excited!

Thanks, I'm going to go there today! 👍
Ah awesome, I hope you enjoyed yourself!
Thanks a bunch for this wonderful video . I really want to get there now either with family or friends . Texas is absolutely amazing . Cheers to all there .🙏👍❤️
Yes absolutely! Texas has some of the friendliest people, so I'm sure you'll have an amazing time here.
Thats my Hood! Great, straight to the point, accurate vid. You forgot to mention...How NICE the people are!
Yes, the people are amazing in FW!
Stockyards is such an amazing experience. You guys hit all the right places. Thanks again for the great content!
Oh yeah, that was a fun day, for sure!
Thanks very much, check out my channel for more like this :)
I ENJOYED VERY MUCH YOUR VIDEO! GREAT FUN! RATHER EXOTIC FOR A EUROPEAN! THANKS!
Thanks! It's a fun place to go to!

Absolutely!
I used to go to the stock yard in fortworth when i was 5 i moved away and i havent been there since and i am watching to remember
Cool!
Kind of sad I live less than 5 mins away and the last time I was at the stock yards was in 2000. I should probably go back and hangout there lol.
Oh yeah, it's a fun shindig. I've go back there in a heartbeat ... and I live in the UK!
How fascinating.🙏
Yes indeed.
I was looking for cool things to do in FW and I came across this video. I was wondering why is everyone finding a bunch of cows walking on the street as "cool"? Then I realized, I come from India and it is pretty common to see random cows chilling on the streets in any Indian city.
It's more the pageantry than anything else. It's common in other parts of the world too.
Ray Krebs, punk Anderson and Jock Ewing used to frequent it (Dallas TV show)
Ah, that's cool. I didn't know that.
I also visited Southfork Ranch, that video is also on my channel.
Lol me watching stock yard videos because im homesick 💀 (From Dallas moved to Florida)
Dallas FW is a lovely area, I felt so welcome by you Texans there.
I'd go back in a heartbeat.
And thanks! Check out my channel for more like this :)
@@UltimateBucketList Austin is great too! Very pretty and they have some interesting things there too!
@@gavanscorner2524 Austin is great!!
❤Texas was beautiful place
It really is beautiful.
i'd love to go there
One day you will!

@@UltimateBucketList thank you for the reply. Cheers!
@@foxtrotdeltausn4757 anytime!
The horns are beautiful but do they give the cattle problems with weight,length health ect?
Not that I'm aware of?
Getting homesick 🥺
You lived in Fort Worth? That's an amazing place to grow up, that must have been fun!
Great Fun, Good food, head on into town and enjoy Sundance Square, visit PetersBros and get a custom hat. Leddy's or Ponder for some boots
Good advice! It took years to find a hat that fits my weird shaped head and boots that fit my flat feet!
Probably should have gone to those places and saved me the trouble.
I want to visit this place
It's definitely worth visiting once in your life!
Yee-haw!
As stereotypical as that is, they actually say that.
Biking must be fantastic too .
Probably? I never tried biking whilst I was out there?
I live in Fort Worth and I dint realize how cool it actually is haha😂😂
Your city is very cool!
@@UltimateBucketList thanks man
There would be many more historical sites there but it was more important to tear those down and build boutique hotels and parking lots.
Apparently so, yeah.
👏🐶
Thank you!
Male cattle are referred to as calf, steer, bull.😊
Not cow. Every bovine isn't a cow!
My Disntse is to goto Fort worth Texas I like cow grils I know cowgirls like me I wonder if cowgirls chew Bubble gum blow big bubbles
Cool, you should totally do it!
that cowboy hat is not you.
I thought the Cowboy hat was very me.
Are you a wrangler? Rodeo rider? Horse showman? Horse trainer? If not than don't be surprised when some fort worth cowboy tombs you up for wearing something you haven't earned.
@@farisdoherty7075 Wow, you're a barrel of laughs. Seriously, you gotta lighten up.
なつかしい、、
These are longhorns
From living in Texas for the past 8 years, I hate that shit. Tons of tourists, everything is so damm expensive and ridskys barbacue ok I guess
Each to their own I guess.
The stockyards is FOR tourists. It's not a place natives tend to hang out.
And yeah, Risky's is not a good representation of Texas BBQ. It used to be a lot better, but they've kinda gone down hill in the past 5-10 years.
So they just tie a steer up so people can sit on it all day? Peoples sadistic behaviors never fail to surprise me anymore
I think it's only for a coupe of hours, then they move them back to whatever ranch they belong to. There's more than one though.
FORT Worth, not FORTH Worth.
One spelling mistake bro, chillax. And thanks.
The worst possible thing has happened ! A whole extra H ! Thank heavens for frank and his frankness !
Shh svu sv
Ummm, sure?
I went there and all I saw were Muslims and Indians. What a let down
I didn't see any there. Maybe one (Asian) Indian in a stetson, but that's about it.
Bob
Fort Worth is a growing city with a ton of opportunity. So it stands to reason that plenty of people who immigrate would move there and end up visiting the Stockyards.
Good. Then stay away. We don’t want small minded people tainting our city
Why does it matter if there were Muslims and Indians lol, they are still people there to do the same thing you were there for
Really? The surrounding neighborhood is 95% Hispanic.
