Oh please. First of all, the Stampede is 100 years old, too. So can we soon acknowledge that it's an epic cultural cornerstone of our City yet?

Secondly, Stampede takes place all over the city. Free breakfasts and beer gardens everywhere. Just because you have to pay $15 to enter the epicenter of it, you're choked? How very sad. Have fun in your misery.
