That’s right. As of today, the AQHA Ford World Show is officially off and running. Things got going today, and will continue through August 9th over at the Oklahoma State Fair Park. This is officially the largest Youth World Show on record, with a 38% increase in entries. This stands to generate a boom of about $15 million for the state and local economies, respectively.

Along with the tough and talented riders and ropers, all of the past favorite merchandise booths will be back, as well as about 30 new additions. The trade show will be located in the gigantified (yes, it’s my word) Cox Pavilion. Booths opened at noon today and will be open until 7pm tonight. From tomorrow until the 8th, the trade show will be open from 9a to 7p, then on the final Saturday of the show, the hours will reduce to 9a-5p. Don’t forget to stop by the Langston’s booth to pick up your coupon for free shipping on all orders over $100, exclusively from Langstons.com.

So, get to the fairgrounds and enjoy the countless events, merchandise booths, and your old buddies, Langston’s. We’re always glad to see you, you know.
