homers backyard ball

After 20 years and over 1.5 million dollars raised, the Homer's Foundation "Homer's Backyard Ball" is saying goodbye.

Homer's Backyard Ball has been an iconic event in Amarillo for many years. I mean, it's a music festival along with a BBQ cook off! What could be better?

On May 16, 2015, Michael Glen Wilcox, a 43-year-old male, was transported to the emergency room after an incident at Homer's Backyard Ball  and died in the hospital.
