Tucson Rodeo Bronco Rider
Rodeo is a contest in an arena in which participants attempt to control or confront livestock—cattle, horses, sheep, and goats— before an audience. It has its origins in the working practices of vaqueros, cowboys and herdsmen in Spain, Mexico, the United States of America, Canada, South America, and Australia. Rodeos in North America typically comprise six standard events: calf roping (tie-down and breakaway), team roping, steer wrestling, saddle bronc riding, bareback bronc riding, and bull riding. Barrel racing and other competitive events such as goat tying and pole bending may also be featured on a program. The events are divided into two basic catergories: the rough stock events and the timed events. Canadian rodeo follows a similar pattern with the Calgary Stampede being Canada's most celebrated rodeo.
