July 2, 2014 (GREELEY, CO) Lucky day number seven was a success
at the 92nd annual Greeley Stampede. Today was Wild West Wednesday
as the Stampede promoted and encouraged attendees to come in their best western
wear to receive discounted admission. Thousands of young and old cowboys and
cowgirls came dressed and read to “Get Western” today.
Jana Kramer performed on the Big Country 97.9 Free Stage during
the night. She sang her biggest hits including “Why Ya Wanna” and “I Hope it
Rains,” and many more. Jana Kramer is a popular and newly emerging country
artist who had a leading role in the hit TV drama series One Tree Hill. Fans

the fourth performance with attendance at around 4,800. Each of these rodeo
performances are adding to the list of choosing the talented athletes who will
