Has anyone here been? Is it worth the ride to go check out?
The wife wants to go see the crafts and I want to see a bull stomp somebody.

Yes, yes, yes, and yes to all of your questions and comments.

Haven't been in a while, crafts are cool, whitetrash everywhere, all in all not a bad way to spend a day if you have nothing going on.

Go early
I went once and wasnt even close enough to see the prison when they started turning everyone around saying it was sold out.

Honestly, I thought it was a little overrated. Saw some guys get absolutely destroyed during the rodeo which was fun to watch. Some great arts and crafts all over the place, but get there early if you want some of the better things. Weather was great when I went this past spring, but I probably won't go back. It was my first time to Angola and was VERY impressed with the property overall...beautiful place.

Something I laughed at a lot while walking around the crafts show. Some of these guys make great looking pieces whether it be chairs, swings, clocks, belts, etc., and then they ruin it by painting or carving 15 fleur de lis or dora the explorer all over it.

I think I'll go ahead and purchase my tickets online.
That would suck to get all the way there and not see anything.

I hate rodeos, but I had a really good time at this one. Not your typical rodeo events, it seems all events are aimed at getting an inmate severely injured. So thats fun to see. Also if you have any need for wooden furniture this is the place to be.

Well worth it IMO. Was way better than I expected. Good food and nice crafts. If your interested in something you can usually jew them down on the price. Got my son a nice little chair for $20, he was asking $30. Also be prepared for the inmates walking around gawking at your wife.

I suggest everyone go at least once. Some of the crafts are nice and the rodeo is entertaining. Better than Wal-marks for people watching

Her Double D fake tatas will enjoy the attention, I'm sure

just make sure you go early, it's a really neat and unique experience

My brother-in-law has access to some reserved tickets. I was told they got them for us for the last weekend. I have never been but heard great things.

Plenty of rapist and drug addicts to appreciate them Careful or. She might get her a new pen-pal

All the people I know who have gone, love it. I know a few people who go annually.
