Maybe you are not a big fan of western culture, but as much as you say it is a hick show, it's western culture. IMO hick is kind of a racial slur. You are aware that this is a culture and way of life for many people?
Sorry, I've just totally hated the thing since I was 5. I thought it was a very ugly place and I never had fun there as a kid. Then my mom stuck me in tiny cowboy boots and sent me to school where everybody laughed at the little asian kid in his plastic hat and silly boots. There's nothing I remotely like about the Stampede other than carnival junk food. Sorry I can't be Curtis Glencross be an awesome chuck wagon racer on the side.
