You can lead a horse to water...but Texas longhorn steers will stampede at the sight of a Dr Pepper.
A very unique bronze sculpture of 70 Texas longhorn cattle herded by three trail riders can be enjoyed in downtown Dallas' Pioneer Plaza. The $9 million sculpture, completed in 1992, commemorates the 19th century cattle drives along the Shawnee Trail. The larger-than-life bronze bovines dramatically come down a hill and through a flowing stream under the watchful eyes of the horse-riding ranchers. The sculpture in the park is the second most visited tourist attraction in the city.
