Eight Events. One Night.

Rough stock and timed events — every performance.

Bareback Riding
01 / 08

Bareback Riding

Eight seconds, one-handed, no saddle. Pure spurring rhythm against a 1,200-pound bronc.

Saddle Bronc Riding
02 / 08

Saddle Bronc Riding

Rodeo's classic event. Style, timing and rhythm earn the score — not just staying on.

Tie-Down Roping
03 / 08

Tie-Down Roping

Rope the calf, throw it, and tie three legs. Fastest clean time wins.

Steer Wrestling
04 / 08

Steer Wrestling

Slide off a galloping horse, grab a steer by the horns and throw it flat. Seconds matter.

Team Roping
05 / 08

Team Roping

A header and a heeler work together to rope a steer head and heels.

Breakaway Roping
06 / 08

Breakaway Roping

Cowgirls catch a calf clean from horseback — when the rope breaks free, the clock stops.

Barrel Racing
07 / 08

Barrel Racing

Cloverleaf pattern around three barrels at full gallop. Tenths of a second decide it.

Bull Riding
08 / 08

Bull Riding

The grand finale. Eight seconds on top of two thousand pounds of bad attitude.
