Join Bennett Rea, creator and host of Cookin' with Congress for a special one-night event featuring entertaining history and a dinner menu fit for a president. Rea's show focuses on the recipes, everyday food choices, and diets of politicians, and his Eating Like a President series highlights the dining habits of some of the most powerful people in U.S. history. This evening's menu and conversation will revolve around the five U.S. presidents who have visited the Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum: Theodore Roosevelt, William Taft, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, and George H.W. Bush.  Get a taste of each president's personality, preferences, and even the actual foods they ate, from Roosevelt's bison sirloin tip roast to Taft's date pie.
