The Following Event Descriptions Are Presented for Your Edification and Clarification on What Is Being Represented and Celebrated in Bronze for Our Champions The following event descriptions are presented for your edification and clarification on what is being represented and celebrated in bronze for our champions. RODEO: Saddle Bronc Riding Saddle Bronc has been a part of the Calgary Stampede since 1912. Style, grace and rhythm define rodeo’s “classic” event. Saddle Bronc riding is a true test of balance. It has been compared to competing on a balance beam, except the “apparatus” in rodeo is a bucking bronc. A saddle bronc rider uses a rein attached to the horse’s halter to help maintain his seat and balance. The length of rein a rider takes will vary on the bucking style of the horse he is riding – too short a rein and the cowboy can get pulled down over the horse’s head. Of a possible 100 points, half of the points are awarded to the cowboy for his ride and spurring action. The other half of the points come from how the bronc bucks and its athletic ability. The spurring motion begins with the cowboy’s feet over the points of the bronc’s shoulders and as the horse bucks, the rider draws his feet back to the “cantle’, or back of the saddle in an arc, then he snaps his feet back to the horse’s shoulders just before the animal’s front feet hit the ground again. Bareback Riding Bareback has also been a part of the Stampede since 1912. In this event, the cowboy holds onto a leather rigging with a snug custom fit handhold that is cinched with a single girth around the horse – during a particularly exciting bareback ride, a rider can feel as if he’s being pulled through a tornado. Although bull riding looks more dangerous, bareback riding is more physically demanding of a cowboy’s strength. The riding arm absorbs most of the horse’s power. The rider is judged on his control during the ride and on his spurring technique. The bareback rider tries to reach as far forward as he can with his feet, then rolls his spurs back up towards the rigging. At the same time, he must keep from being pulled away from his handhold. Higher marks are awarded to the rider who is best able to coordinate his spurring with the bronc’s action. Bull Riding Originally called Steer Riding at the 1923 Stampede – this event has tested cowboys against bucking and spinning bulls since very early on. Holding on to only a braided rope looped around the bull’s girth and held tight by the rider’s hand, the contestant tries to stay aboard an animal weighing roughly ten times more than he does. A cowbell attached to the rope serves as a weight that pulls the rope free once the rider has released his grip. Bull Riding requires exceptional balance, upper body strength and strong legs. There is no requirement to spur as staying on top and close to his hand is challenge enough for the rider on these loose-hided animals. Bull Riding is the adrenaline rush of rodeo excitement. Tie-Down Roping Tie-Down Roping is the most technical event in rodeo. It requires a unique partnership with a working horse and excellent hand eye coordination on the part of the cowboy. The calf is always given a head start and releases the barrier with a breakaway cord when it reaches the end of that head start. Once the calf is roped, the contestant relies on his horse to stop in a stride as he dismounts on the run to reach the animal, flank and tie three legs in a cross-bone tie. While the roper makes the tie, his horse works independently to keep the rope taught. Time is called when the roper throws his hands into the air signaling he is finished. A great run is a well-choreographed ballet. Steer Wrestling Timing, co-ordination and strength make for a successful steer wrestler. Although Steer Wrestling is not a team event; the contestant relies heavily on his hazer – another rider tasked with keeping the steer running in a straight line. During the run the contestant rides alongside the steer and eases off his horse and reaches for the steer’s head. He catches the right horn in the crook of his right arm and reaches under the jaw of the steer with his left. As his feet hit the ground he uses them to dig into the dirt and slow the steer’s momentum enough to turn the steer as he wrestles the animal to its side. Time is called when the steer is on its side with all four feet extending in one direction. This is the fastest of the timed events – so don’t blink. Ladies Barrel Racing The Ladies Barrel Racing is a true horse race. In turn, each rider circles three barrels in a cloverleaf pattern. The tighter the turns on the barrels; the faster the time. The partnership between horse and rider is just as key as having a fast horse. The Quarterhorse is the preferred breed, but any horse that excels at fast speed in the short term and sharp turns can make a good barrel horse. The difference between winning and losing is in tight turns that almost graze the barrel. Novice Saddle Bronc Riding The Novice Saddle Bronc riding is governed by the same rules as the open Saddle Bronc and closely resembles that event. The only difference is the age of the riders. Novice contestants must be 20 years of age or younger. This event is where the young cowboys meet the young horses, so watch for some wild action. Novice Bareback Riding Cowboys 20 years of age and under match up with the young, up and coming horses from the Stampede Ranch. Novice Bareback riders follow the same rules as the open Bareback competition, but with all the youthful eagerness involved – this can be wild and exotic to watch. Junior Steer Riding This event is often the training ground for future bull riders. Young cowboys aged 11 to 14 compete on wily steers or heifers. As with the other roughstock events one half of the score is awarded for the contestant’s ability to ride and the other half is for the stock’s ability to buck. The cowboys are allowed to ride with one hand or two. If they elect to ride with only one – they must abide by the rules for bull riding – whereby they will be disqualified for slapping the animal, themselves or double grabbing with both hands during the eight seconds. The requirements now include helmets & flak jackets for safety. Champion Saddle Bronc Horse, Champion Bareback Horse & Champion Bull The four legged superstars of rodeo are champions in their own right. The best Saddle Bronc, Bareback Horse and Bull of the Stampede are chosen by the judges as the animal best typifying the bucking style and the best test of the riders’ ability. They are rank and tough to ride. These three separate awards and the bragging rights that go with them are coveted by the stock producers who bring us their animals annually. These animals will join the list of champions declared since 1979. Guy Weadick Award Named for the founder of the Stampede – this coveted award is presented to the contestant who best combines outstanding accomplishments in rodeo or chuckwagon racing with personality, sportsmanship, deportment and is involved in furthering their sport. The successful contestant also represents western lifestyle and values. The winners receive an individual bronze and their name is inscribed on a permanent display in the Rodeo & Chuckwagon Office of the Calgary Stampede. Rodeo Daily Awards Each day of the first eight days of competition, the top ride or fastest time in the six major rodeo events is rewarded with a small bronze during our rodeo finale where the day’s champions are presented on stage. So watch for these winners each performance as they receive unique and iconic Calgary Stampede bronzes that represent more of a western or rodeo feel than their actual event. CHUCKWAGONS: Safety Award The Safety Award was established in 1998 to encourage safety and sportsmanship among chuckwagon drivers while racing. The driver with the fewest penalty seconds is the winner. In the event of a tie, the driver with the fastest cumulative running time will receive the award. Chuckwagon Championship This is the big one and it is presented to the winner of the final heat of the GMC Rangeland Derby – the Champion of the meet. This is where all the preparation of the season and 10 days of racing come together. The winning team of four thoroughbreds pulling a highly refined racing wagon being driven by a professional teamster is closely tracked by two mounted outriders as it thunders across the finish line to claim victory. There is nothing quite like the thunder of the Rangeland Derby – 96 pounding hoofs and 20,000 cheering fans. Chuckwagon Aggregate The driver of the wagon with the fastest cumulative running time for the first eight days of the Stampede is the Aggregate Champion. This is where fast running and clean racing pays off. This award celebrates consistency. Chuckwagon Advertiser The Calgary Stampede sells the rights to advertise on the tarps of its 36 wagon drivers at an annual Auction. These lucky corporations are integral to the excitement and continuation of the sport by providing the drivers with some much needed funding and support. Often advertisers invest time and manpower to help the drivers during the 10 day show – they aren’t afraid to grab a pitch fork or a set of BBQ tongs and help out.

Since I was a college graduate, single, broke, and living with my dad, I felt like a failure. It was one of the most depressing periods in my life but eventually I found the rodeo arena. I started riding bulls and for the first time in a long while, I felt like I was worthy. Rodeo is not like other sports. In most sports, the athlete shares the stage with many other people at the same time. In basketball, football, baseball, and track and field, there is never a time when a participant can be confident that every single spectator is watching nobody else but him. In rodeo, every competitor gets his or her moment in the sun.
