Since its conception in 1976 in Salt Lake City, UT, the INFR has brought together several associations from the northern hemisphere to compete year in and year out. With prizes being over $1,000,000, the stakes are high. Talent ranges from amateur to even PRCA riders. Standing as the largest and oldest Indian rodeo organization in the world, the competition allows from anywhere from 8-year-olds to 80-year-olds.
This year, you can find electrifying cowboys such as reigning bareback riding champion Buck Lunak or 2014 saddle bronc maestro Fran Marchand.

Each time fans leave jubilant and entertained as the cowboys and cowgirls are anything short of amazing.
The number one sport in America never fails to make an impression and the INFR is a prime example of that.
