DENVER — A star of television's most popular show was in Colorado for the 118th National Western Stock Show.
Actor Mo Brings Plenty, who stars in the Western drama "Yellowstone," spent several days taking in the show in Denver.
The Honoring the Legacy Campaign, the fundraising campaign for the under-construction National Western Center campus, shared photos of Brings Plenty visiting with Stock Show leaders.
"What a great few days it’s been hosting Mo Brings Plenty here at the National Western!" the campaign shared on Facebook. "From visiting Cowboy Up Hatters, to the PBR, to filming in the Yards, to lunch with Colorado Concern, and then the President’s Reception, it’s been a packed few days! Thank you for joining us and sharing your cowboy ethics with all of us!"
Brings Plenty has been a cast member of the Kevin Costner-led Paramount Network series "Yellowstone" since it launched in 2018. He also serves as the franchise's American Indian affairs coordinator on the prequel series "1923."
Honoring the Legacy has raised $115 million of its $150-million goal for the new National Western Center campus that will become the new home of the National Western Stock Show in the years ahead.
Part-rodeo, part-livestock show and part-fair, the National Western Stock Show brings hundreds of thousands of people to the National Western Complex in Denver each year for a celebration of Colorado's agricultural heritage.
Now in its 118th year, the National Western Stock Show has one of the world’s richest regular-season professional rodeos, one of the country’s largest horse shows and Colorado’s largest agricultural trade show. The Stock Show welcomes attendees from 48 states and 32 countries and will drive an estimated $171 million in economic impact to Colorado.
The National Western Stock Show runs through Sunday, Jan. 21.
Tickets to the National Western Stock Show and a full schedule of events can be found at NationalWestern.com.
