Hello, hello, hello.

Ryan, I think it's been a heavy week in terms of news and news cycles going crazy. Some of the biggest news in our industry would be the Fort Worth Stock Show. Do you like to address that one?

Well, unfortunately, the Fort Worth Stock Show. Do you like to address that one?

Well, unfortunately, the Fort Worth Stock Show has canceled for 2021. I don't know what there is to address about it other than, you know, that's a blow to the industry and very sad, but it's happened

several times throughout the year of 2020.

And just like all the other cancellations, we're just going to have to pick up and move on.

Well, I think it hits people harder from the standpoint that if you would talk to many of those that I visit with or the families that we work with in Texas thought that would maybe be the last one that would cancel because it's privately owned. And conservative mayor and has a lot of

positive going for them. So I think it maybe hit him a little bit harder doing so. And obviously

the stock show, what people sometimes forget is that they do not want to cancel. They're there to put on a show.

And just the financial aspect alone is going to hit them, I'm sure, pretty hard by not having the show.

So we need to keep that in mind that the stock shows, assumably doing everything or tried to do everything possible to host one.

And sometimes it's not going to work and

we we sure hope the others are able to continue and we continue to have plenty of shows to go to

but i i know there's plenty of shows popping up in terms of larger jackpot shows and even

replacement shows for denver and there are shows that will be happening.
