Buffalo Bill Cody Stampede Park, Cody, WY is the premier rodeo show. During the summer season the rodeo takes place every evening. The foremost rodeo is the annual Cody Stampede, ongoing since 1919 featuring the best cowboys and cowgirls competing for over $400,000 in prize money sanctioned by the PRCA. This pictorial is about the Cody Night Rodeo, the longest running rodeo since its first beginnings in 1938. There is no doubt that rodeo is one of the toughest sports. Hockey and football pale in comparison to the punishment endured by cowboys and bull riders. By comparison these cowboy’s and cowgirl’s opponents are 700 pound bucking broncos and 1500 pound mean bulls. As these pictures depict it takes strength, a certain indifference to pain, and athletic skill to rope, and ride. Great athletes providing a not to be missed entertaining evening.
