Help improve Atlas Obscura by expanding Rusk County Youth Expo Center with additional information or photos.

Antique Tractor pulling is a dying sport—but not at the Rusk County Youth Expo Center! You’ll be able to see much more here, too, including emotional paintings of children championing livestock and a gallery of all the local ranch brands. The whole place is a celebration of ranch life. The venue hosts an array of events including livestock sales and shows, concerts, and equestrian events.

Know Before You Go

Bring cash. The square readers at the food truck and tractor hat truck have issues with connecting to the internet.
