National Western Stock Show Pro Rodeo Information
The origins of modern rodeos can be traced to the Spanish and Mexican traditions of cattle herding. The Spanish word rodeo is the original one. Many rodeo contests aim to "round up," which is one possible translation. Current rodeo skills are derived from those that cowboys had to acquire.
Modern cowboys and cowgirls showcase their skills at these events, which feature horses, bulls, and other livestock. Events like saddle bronc riding, steer wrestling, and tie-down roping characterize the American form of professional rodeos.
People in the western portion of the US love rodeos. As far as official state sports go, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Texas list rodeo. Additionally, rodeo's popularity has skyrocketed in the Canadian province of Alberta. Legislation to recognize American rodeo as Alberta's official sport has been proposed before.
The PRCA governs all men's professional rodeos in the US. Various cowgirl events are sanctioned by the Women's Professional Rodeo Association (WPRA).
Rodeos have existed since at least the 1820s. Across the American West and northern Mexico, cowboys would have casual contests. Formal rodeo events gained popularity after the Civil War. Conventional wisdom is that Cheyenne, Wyoming, hosted the inaugural rodeo in 1872. Rodeos were established as a popular form of public entertainment when Wild West exhibitions spread across the US.
