Why are you allowed to eliminate four things?

It's hard to pick what defines a city though, I wouldn't even say the Stampede defined the city entire.

The entire Stampede STARTED as just the rodeo...why on eath would we ever disassociate from that? Take it away and you have K days or whatever its called now...or any other geneic carnival in every other city in the world.

As for the bolded...there is a petty good reason Calgary is known as the "Stampede city".
