A different kind of cowboy contest

True, cowboys are known for flexing their muscles and proving their skills. Any number of rodeo events come to mind at this thought.


However, visitors to Montgomery, AL on September 13th will see a different type of cowboy contest, one which cattlemen should find particularly interesting.



Beginning with the opening ceremony to start at 12:30 p.m., the Montgomery Stockyards, LLC will host a Quarterfinal for the World Livestock Auctioneer Championship. Last year's World Champion Auctioneer, Kyle Shobe of Lewiston, MT, will serve as the MC of the contest.


This is a great opportunity to showcase Alabama to the rest of the country as this event will draw contestants and onlookers from far beyond the state's borders. We hope you're able to attend as the crew from MSY will also be hosting a customer appreciation day on this date.
