Buffalo Round-up at Custer State Park
We will be watching the Buffalo Round-up which is 1 of my "bucket list" trips... Anyone have any advice? We will be camping at Rafter-J. Thanks, RVman / John

Try to arrive at the viewing area by 9 a.m. The pancakes and coffee are good. It's about a 30 minute drive from Game Lodge campground down to it.
If you have lawn chairs and can get down close to the fence, do so and hold your place :) If you are tall, you can stand back and look over the heads of several hundred people. We took a small kitchen step ladder that enabled us to get high enough to see over the heads.
We have only used the north side but it looks like you can see well from the south side, too.
The arts and crafts event...before the buffalo run... is really good. lots of first class crafts and art and the bison burgers are good and they do a raffle drawing every hour, but you gotta be there.
All the gift chops in the state park have good sales going.
The restaurant in the Game Lodge is a bit pricey but good.
The film at the visitor center is pretty good.
The Peter Norbeck scenic roadway is really good.
