I've been to the Sioux City yard a few time, and Oklahoma City.
Are there any still in operation?

I have fond memories of riding along with Dad to the Sioux City Stockyards, but there's been a Home Depot there for at least 15 years now.

Here is a recent memorable stockyard event.

Two meatpacking giants are battling in federal bankruptcy court over a 1,500 acre feedlot near Pasco, Washington. It’s part of the ongoing Easterday cattle swindle saga.

The false and fraudulent invoices caused Tyson to pay Easterday approximately $233,008,042 for the purported costs of purchasing and growing nonexistent cattle never purchased or delivered to Easterday.



Easterday still owes Tyson $177.1 million in restitution.
