For rodeo fans in the Midwest, they know just how special these events are in not only showcasing great talent, but also in helping the community hosting the rodeo. As cowboys and cowgirls in Missouri know, there’s nothing better than attending the American Royal Rodeo. This great Missouri rodeo, scheduled for September 29-30 at the Hale Arena, promises to bring a level of excitement seen at very few rodeos across the United States.

Media Coverage

Since this is such a special Midwestern event, the American Royal Rodeo garners a variety of media coverage that showcases the many wonderful and exciting aspects of this Missouri rodeo. As with all important rodeos, the Cowboy Lifestyle Network will lead the way in media coverage, with plenty of great interviews and videos of the action. Along with CLN, other media coverage will be provided by the Ak-Chin Indian Community and Earnhardt Auto Centers Road Team, guaranteeing the American Royal Rodeo will be bigger and better than ever.

Great Rodeo Action

Needless to say, there will be plenty of great rodeo action Friday and Saturday. From the bull riding to the barrel racing, the team roping and steer wrestling, there’s sure to be something that will satisfy fans of all ages. With many of the world’s top rodeo competitors scheduled to compete this year, there’s no doubt the thrills and spills will keep people on the edge of their seats from start to finish.

Special Events

Along with watching the competitors tame the big, bad bulls, there will be other special events over the weekend. Among the most popular will be the Pendleton Whisky Tailgate, which will offer live music after the rodeo action ends.
Not only can fans stay late and dance to the great music of Phil Vandel and Noe Palma, but they can also play plenty of fun tailgate games while enjoying great food from the food trucks. And along with BBQ competitions, livestock shows, parades, and plenty of other activities that benefit such charities as Tough Enough To Wear Pink, fans will have the time of their lives.

To be sure you don’t miss any of the great action of this Missouri rodeo, purchase your tickets as soon as possible. If you like, you can purchase them at the Municipal Auditorium box office from 10-5 Monday-Friday, charge them by phone by calling 1-800-745-3000, or visit Ticketmaster.com.

Peter Varlet

Peter Varlet’s the cowboy critic you love to hate, until he’s right. Born during a thunderstorm in 1972 in Bismarck, North Dakota, he grew up watching his WWII vet dad battle to save their farm from corporate claws. Now, Peter’s the unapologetic voice of Western culture, with a historian’s grip on America’s past, acknowledging both its heroes and hypocrites. His truth to power articles are a no-holds-barred zone for rodeo reviews, cowboy movie takedowns, and ranching tricks that work. He’ll tell you why your country singer’s a fraud and how to fix a fence with only baling wire and spite. Peter despises corporate factory farms taking over and cherishes the DIY grit of real Americans. Politically correct? Nope. Trustworthy? Damn straight. He’s saving the West, one brutal truth at a time.
