Ice and Snow Wreak Havoc on Texoma Exposition and Livestock Show in Grayson County, Texas

Brent Graves of StockShowAuctions.com takes us to Grayson County to see the damage from a historic winter ice storm and what it will take to rebuild.

A powerful winter storm left its mark on Grayson County, Texas, damaging a livestock show barn that generations of youth have relied on. The Texoma Exposition and Livestock Show facility took heavy ice and snow from the recent storm, forcing organizers to scramble with the county show just weeks away, and they estimate rebuilding could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
