I didn’t make it to Vegas this year but I went last year when they held it at Globe Life Park in Arlington. They go all out & put on a hell of a show. It was a good time but it put a hurt on the wallet!
-
I really enjoy the timed events. Bulldoggin is my favorite to watch. Amazing to watch those fellas lean off those big, fast horses and dig their heels in and flip those steers. Calf Ropin & Team Ropin are super skilled Cowboys with great horses. Barrel Racing & Rough Stock Events are top shelf, first class stock, Cowgirls, & Cowboys.
-
If you have never been, try to make it to a ranch rodeo. Usually 4 man teams of True  working Cowboys sponsored by a working ranch. They do wild cow milkin, team sorting, branding, penning & sometimes loading on a trailer. All events are timed and test the skills needed to work on a ranch. Not as pretty as a “normal rodeo” but it’s real cow puncher stuff.

Shotgun you’re right about all of that. It’s all fun, interesting, and real, but there are soooo many life related lessons to be taken away from the rodeos. There were a lot of good cowboys and cow girls there this year. It’s hard to have a favorite but Stetson Wright won some fans in our household, especially my 11yr old. He got to see what try and never giving up gets you and him voicing it let me know he understood and appreciated it. It’s something he can relate to in his baseball and the sports he will start playing this next year for the school. He got to see guys have bad luck or not perform up to par one round only to comeback the next night and do good, not quitting because of adversity. All sports teach life lessons but you have to be able to reference those lessons in everyday life. Rodeo and rodeo type events represent a way of life that is very closely related to all of us in our hog dogging life style. It makes me the proudest to see them give tribute to our veterans, our first responders like the police, firefighters, and EMT’s but especially proud that they aren’t afraid or ashamed to thank God publicly and out loud. Country folk are the salt of the earth!!!!

My sister and her husband ranch up in N. Dakota and had a friend who went on the weekends and gave them the tickets Monday through Thursday for years. They are friends with most of the Wright family. Pretty close knit salt of the earth family. Watching JB Mauney this year was painful to see but his gameness and determination was incredible.

I respect the lifestyle for sure !
We farmers and swampers around my parts.
I have been fortunate enough to hunt on several ranches in different states and have always loved how things get done!
Shotgun I left my wallet out there cause there weren’t nothing in it to bring home lol
On a side note the scenery was second to none !!! Lol

I’ve seen the day in and day out cowboying and branding and all and loved it
We have had some small type rodeos here and I’ve tussled alil with some just for fun not cause I had to-

One story I always will remember ol ranch hand told me one time in little ol town in Nebraska- he said one weekend a year everyone here comes together and put all differences aside if any are there and we help each other do all the branding until everyone is done - that’s living it there for sure and holds my respect
