56,000 people will be attending the 2021 San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo this February 11th through 28th. January 2021 was the deadliest month of the pandemic in Bexar County. On average, 1,400 people are being infected each day, and as of Sunday, there are still 1,169 people in the hospital, 385 in the ICU, and 247 on ventilators.
County Judge Nelson Wolff has asked the San Antonio Rodeo to cancel rodeo and entertainment events because it is a danger to our community, but the Rodeo says the show must go on!
The San Antonio Rodeo narrative? It’s for the kids. RODEOHOUSTON canceled its May rodeo and STILL raised $21.7M for the youth. This isn’t for the kids, this is for the money and it’s 100% reckless, irresponsible, and unethical. Please sign this petition I created to show the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo that you care about the health and wellbeing of your community and want to stop the spread.
