Rodeo

Well it's bulls and blood
It's dust and mud
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles
The gold in the buckle
He'll win the next go 'round
It's boots and chaps
It's cowboy hats
It's spurs and latigo
It's the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
And they call the thing rodeo

Can you tell I am getting really excited that rodeo is approaching here in Houston? But as much as I love the hometown show, There is one I want to see even more -- the National Finals Rodeo, which comes around every December. After all, the NFR features the best of the best in every event.

The National Finals Rodeo is that is held in Las Vegas Nevada every year over a ten-day stretch. The top money earners every year from each rodeo event are invited to compete for the title of world champion. These events are bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping, saddle bronc riding, calf roping, barrel racing, and bull riding. The competition is always intense, and the animal athletes are also tops in their class, not just the cowboys and cowgirls.

I really enjoy watching the National Finals Rodeo on television, however, would really like to go some December. National Finals Rodeo tickets can be a challenge to get on short notice, however. IÂ’m told you need to reserve them long before the rodeo actually starts. IÂ’m also told, though, that tickets can be found through different ticket agencies if you canÂ’t make plans to attend early enough to order tickets for yourself.
