The Cowboys and Cowgirls They comprise the majority of the association’s roster and include those who take part in professional rodeos for their living and crisscross the country with equipment and horses that they own and those who have regular jobs during the week and are competitors in rodeos on weekends.
World Champions That is ProRodeo’s most coveted title. Eight world titlists are crowned at the conclusion of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, and it is based on the total season’s rodeo earnings at rodeos and monies earned at the Wrangler NFR. Each champion receives a special trophy saddle and a gold buckle.
