Wrangler National Finals Rodeo at Thomas and Mack - December 2 to 11, 2010
I attended the 52nd Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, held December 2 to 11, 2010 at the Thomas and Mack in Las Vegas.
The Wrangler National Finals Rodeo is the championship event for the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association’s rodeo year.
The 2010 Wrangler NFR Bull Riders were 20-Steve Woolsey, 21-Wesley Silcox, 47-Shawn Hogg, 51-Tyler Smith, 63-Kanin Asay, 92-Ardie Maier, 96-Chad Everett Denton, 99-Seth Glause, 101-Clayton Williams, 105-J.W. Harris, 106-Dustin Elliott, 109-Bobby Welsh, 112-D.J. Domangue, 118-Corey Navarre, and 119-Cody Whitney.
Bull Riding is a fan favorite at rodeos, and the NFR is no exception. The fans love their bulls and their bull riders, and just as the bull riders have fans so do the bulls.
Bull riding is a dangerous both during the ride and after the ride. Cowboys who ride bulls are mentally and physically tough, as well as being extremely courageous with quick reflexes and good coordination to ride a fifteen hundred to two thousand pound bull for eight seconds.
The bull rider will attempt to ride his bull for eight seconds, and will be disqualified if he touches the bull or himself with his free hand. The bull will do everything he can to get the rider off his back, twisting, turning, and bucking. Bulls are individual in their bucking style and no two bulls are exactly the same. Some bulls will dart left then right, others may spin, and others will jump high and kick out, all in attempt to dislodge the bull rider.
Bull riding is exciting, dangerous, and two rides are ever exactly the same. Bull fighters distract the bull to help ensure the bull rider can safely get out of the arena. Every bull rider knows that the next ride could be his last, but, it does not deter him, rather fuels his desire to become the best of the best.
I would like to the Thomas and Mack, the PRCA (Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association), the Cowboys and Cowgirls, the stock contractors, and the fans for their support of rodeo.
Come join me for ten days of rides, the wrecks, and the unforgettable moments of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Let’s Ride!!
