You didn’t even mention the mutton busting (kids 4-7 hanging in for dear life to ride the back of a lamb) and rodeo art contest! My daughter got an honorable mention in the 5th grade category last year.

The rodeo is probably the best Houston institution, though Theater Under the Stars is a close second for family friendly activities.

Isn't Chicago still #3? I can't find a source showing Houston as #3 in USA city population. Then again, I expect Houston WILL be #3 soon. BTW, nice post, thank you!
