The fans are a big part of the Cowboy Gathering. Many dress the "cowboy" part in keeping the cowboy and Texas tradition of western dress. Many get pretty "duded up" for the occasion from colorful shirts and dresses to the fanciest of boots and buckles. These folks get real serious about "blending" into the event. This year, I met some pretty interesting hardcore folks . . . some as far away as Alberta Canada and the UK. Get on over next year to meet some of the folks. Anyone you know in here? And, oh - these photos are for sale.
