March/April 2023 Sire Edition

Antonio for hosting such an incredible event. The San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo is one of the largest and most presti- gious stock shows in the world, and I am honored to have been a part of it. The city's hospitality and support of the stock show community are unparal- leled, and I look forward to returning year after year to watch my two sis- ters, Aniston and Chan- ning, show their animals. Of course, I couldn't have won the show without my steer, Travis, who could easily pass as an emotional support ani- mal. Although, I am not sure they would sell him a seat on the plane! He is a true partner and friend, and I am grateful for the bond we have built over the past year. I also want to thank my fellow competitors, who pushed me to be my best and provided a supportive community throughout the competition. Finally, I want to thank all the local patrons who came out to support me and the other competitors.

Your cheers and applause were a constant source of energy and inspiration, and I am humbled by the outpouring of support we received. It is because of you that the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo is such a special event, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share my passion with you. In conclusion, winning the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo has been one of the greatest accom- plishments of my life, and I am grateful to everyone who contributed to this achievement. From God to my family, my steer, the city of San Antonio, my fellow competitors, and the many champi- ons of agriculture who each played a critical role in helping me reach the top of the podium. I am proud to represent this amazing stock show community, and I look forward to continuing to compete and inspire others to pursue their passions with dedication and hard work. Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart.
