Won’t you take me to “Funkytown”?

Fort Worth, Texas, often gets overshadowed by its big brother Dallas. It has Wild West charm mashed with big city fun. Twice a day you can see longhorn cattle herded through the streets of Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District. You can also take in an opera, sit down to an upscale meal, and stay in swanky hotels like The Ashton and The Worthington Renaissance Forth Worth. Between the boutique hotels and shops, lively night spots, and genuine cowboy touches, it’s nearly impossible to have a typical vacation in Fort Worth.

You can also visit the museum commemorating the Negro Leagues baseball, as Kansas City was the home of the first professional league for black players. Tailgating outside Royals and Chiefs games is where sports enthusiasts to really showcase their best barbecue.
