Cowboys, Carnivals, and Cocktails

Whiskey@Work heads out to the Central States Fair and Rodeo for a ten a.m. pour with Ron Jefferies, straight from the Ford Tailgate Party tent. They crack open Pendleton, the fair's longtime whiskey partner, and get into why cowboys stay so loyal to their sponsors, why the fair always lands the week after Sturgis, and how school schedules keep messing with everybody's calendar. Ron drops some real gems on fair history too, the old Alfalfa Palace, the flood that reshaped the grounds, and how the name Central States Fair actually came to be. Add in a Tilt-a-Whirl turning one hundred fifty, a wild Caribou Crossing story from a Canada road trip, and plenty of laughs, and you've got a morning well spent. * * * Hosted on Acast.
