No Bull: Zac Brown Bids $330,000 for “Magic” Steer

Before Zac Brown closed this year’s Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in front of a sold-out crowd on March 26, he went steer shopping.

Zac—who was joined by his wife, Shelly, and four others—put together the winning bid of $330,000 for a mixed-breed steer named Magic in the Junior Market Steer Auction. Magic was named the reserve grand champion and was exhibited by Stock Martin, 16, of Hereford, Texas, who was guaranteed a payment of $40,000 to $45,000.

This year’s 20-day Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo set an 85-year attendance record of more than 2.6 million and featured performances from Aaron Watson, Old Dominion, Chris Stapleton, Alan Jackson, Sam Hunt, Thomas Rhett, Luke Bryan, Willie Nelson, Florida Georgia Line, Chris Young, Dierks Bentley, Brad Paisley, Zac Brown Band and more.

Starting in June, Thomas will kick-off his Bring The Bar To You tour with back to back shows in Gilford, New Hampshire with openers Parker McCollum and Conner Smith.

After going through the last two years, Thomas says, “I’ll never take for granted being able to come see y’all and I’m so fired up to play some of these new ones that were made with these nights in mind. I have a feeling things are going to get loud – I’m counting down the days already!”
