Rooftop Rodeo

Hardly any one else has reviewed a rodeo on Unilocal!but what the hay, why not?
This is a small rodeo in size – and that is its main advantage – you can get up close to the action and each evening show lasts around two hours; that is good for kids.
It ranks high in prize money so it draws professional rodeo contestants from around the US.
The events are very well organized and things move fast with little or no «dead» time.
The Behind the Chutes tour is excellent but it sells out early so your best chance to to order tickets online in advance.
My only criticism is that all the rodeo start times are 7:15 pm. This means that by the time the last event, bull riding, takes place it is too dark for photos and even before that the light fades so only the fastest cameras and lenses will capture good images. (When I attended, there had been rain showers just before the start and heavy cloud cover advanced the time of darkness.) Because the bleachers and arena are small, a 200 mm lens is sufficient for most shots.
