Houston rodeo trip

I'm thinking about going to the Houston rodeo for the first time. Any good advise for my first time? What are the best seats for the rodeo/concert? Are club seats worth getting? Any activities before the rodeo starts?

Th chili cook off is an awesome time and is the Friday/Saturday before the rodeo starts.
Action seats are the best (in my opinion) because you're on the actual floor of NRG stadium and they have a bar right there. shite is awesome.
The astro arena/Astro hall are chock-full of vendors selling everything under the sun from $5000 custom made boots to pickled rattlesnake meat.
Last, and certainly by no means least, The eye candy out there is astounding and if there is ever an event where it's possible to get tired of staring at camel toes in yoga pants, short shorts, or tight jeans that is the one

Only "big" rodeo I have been to was Frontierdays in Cheyenne, so I have no idea how Houston's set up is done since the venues are so completely different.
We sat right behind the bucking chutes in Cheyenne and it was the best seat I have ever had at a rodeo. Getting to watch the riders get on the horses/bulls and see the animals react in the chute was the coolest experience. Also, you were pretty close to the action when they opened the gate too.

It's a lot of fun. Went every year for a few days when I lived there. I need to make a trip back but it's not a good time of year for me to do that.
I would make a day of it if you can. Spend some time walking around the festival area outside, got some really, really good food vendors. BBQ and Mexican are on point.
I always liked walking around the old astroarena where they keep all the animals at. And the hall that has all the vendors and more animals... it's neat to see all the stuff they have there. It screams Texas... but it's fun to look at.
We used to get the chute seats at least once a year. Amazing to sit there and watch everything.

I'm headed over on March 18 to see Willie Nelson. Sitting in be second row behind the bucking chutes. Got the ticket at cost ($30) and the "action seats" 10 feet from me well for $300.
Also heading over March 3-4 to catch the BBQ cook off, cutting horse competition finals (which is impressive to watch), and watch LSU baseball at Minute Maid Park.
Whatever day you're going, get there early because there's a hell of a lot to see.

Action or chute seats are probably the best for the rodeo and concert but these come with a price. Some tickets allow for dirt access which means that during the concert you can go down right in front of the stage. I usually sit in section 124 for rodeo and the view is great. There really isn't a bad seat for rodeo because the stage spins.
Chairmans level is great because it includes alcohol and food.
The only advice I have for rodeo is wear comfortable shoes and bring cash. If you come in the first weekend, check out the ranch rodeo in NRG Arena. It's local rodeo teams and it is pretty cool.
Also check out the Hideout. It's free with your ticket and features actual country music artists instead of this top 40 pop country.
