New record for Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo

HOUSTON Just before 4pm Saturday, the Livestock Show and Rodeo saw its two-millionth visitor of the year. That shattered the all-time record of more than a 1,890,000 set last year. The show's chief operating office, Leroy Shafer, credits the big turnout to fewer people traveling this year and good weather.

Grand Prairie native Selena Gomez and 15-year-old Canadian Justin Bieber will close out the Rodeo this afternoon. Both will make their Rodeo Houston debuts. Their show is all sold out.
