Rodeo is a competitive equestrian sport that originated from the cattle herding practices of Spain and Mexico, eventually spreading across the Americas and to other countries. It is rooted in the skills of working vaqueros and cowboys in what is now the western United States, western Canada, and northern Mexico. Today, it is a sporting event featuring horses and other livestock, designed to showcase the skill and speed of cowboys and cowgirls. Professional rodeos typically include events such as tie-down roping, team roping, steer wrestling, saddle bronc riding, bareback bronc riding, bull riding, breakaway roping, and barrel racing. These events are categorized into timed events and rough stock events. Depending on the sanctioning organization and region, other events like goat tying and pole bending may also be featured. The “world’s first public cowboy contest” reportedly took place on July 4, 1883, in Pecos, Texas, between cattle driver Trav Windham and roper Morg Livingston.[1]
