When the sun went down, the cowboy hats came out. The SEC25 social at Cowboys Calgary was nothing short of legendary. With neon lights overhead and country music pumping, delegates swapped blazers for plaid shirts and boots. The crowd danced in unison, sang along, and laughed freely. The sign overhead read, “The Most Fun You Can Have With Your Boots On!” and nobody was arguing. It was a celebration of connection, of letting loose after full days of learning and networking. For many, this was the moment SEC25 transformed from conference to community.
