Walt Garrison (Walt) Quotes
I grew up in Lewisville, there was like 2,200 people at the time. My mother and dad grew up there, went to the same high school I did. Back then, we didn't specialize in any sport. You played football, then basketball, then baseball and ran track. It was great. We had a high school rodeo team. Why I got interested, I don't know. My uncle had a farm. Used to ride calves and horses. It was just kind of natural. Anybody that could ride, entered the rodeos.
