From olden to golden: the history (and future!) of the Calgary Stampede Grounds

How much do you know about the history of the Stampede Grounds? It's a trip!

Joel talks about some of his favourite historic spots on the site, the challenges of running such a major event in the middle of a big city... and, with the construction of Scotia Place arena, what's in store for the Stampede Grounds in the years to come.
