And with this year’s lineup of riders and events, the Scottsdale Parada del Sol Rodeo includes a variety of competitors that will keep the crowd entertained and the broncos bucking each night. To keep the crowd entertained and informed, two of the best rodeo announcers around will be at the microphones. Dan Fowlie, along with Wayne Brooks, will be calling the action during the event.

Robbie Hoddges, better known in rodeo circles as “Rockin'” Robbie Hoddges, will lend his talents to the show. And to top it all off, the specialty act promises to bring even more action and excitement to the fans. John Payne, with his “One Armed Bandit and Company” act, will leave the crowd wanting more with his skills and antics.
