For one, the attire is pretty casual. As much as I like seeing Brian in a tux, he doesn&#8217;t enjoy it much because he finds it too stuffy. This one is Western-themed so, even though it&#8217;s a fancy event, you can be cowboy-like and fit right in. People can be as dressed up or as casual as they want to be. Also, the atmosphere is super relaxed and fun.<\/p>\n<p>It was even more fun this year because the Bowmans and the Coins were there. Usually, Brian and I attend these events by ourselves. It&#8217;s always more fun when there are familiar faces or friends to hang out with.<\/p>\n<p>Huge thanks to our friend Joe Parten for hooking us up with VIP tickets! I hope we get to go again next year. Definitely something to look forward to in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are some pictures from the Cattle Baron&#8217;s Ball earlier this month.
