Rodeo News:
Rio Abajo Days, Belen, New Mexico – In the little town of Belen, NM they celebrate their rural heritage with Rio Abajo Days. For the past few years they’ve offered a Sheep to Bull Riding event. The mutton busters are pretty cute kids and there were quite a few PBR card holders who showed up for the open section. But the section that got me was the Jr. Bulls. The riding was a tie, so a foot race was organized to break the tie. Well as one of the judges of the foot race let me insure you not only was the bull riding a tie but so were the foot race and the second race too! A good time was had by all!
Breeders News:
With all of the spectacular sales that have been going on it is quite obvious that the bucking bull business is starting to smoke! But if you want to see what the future holds for papered animals then I suggest everyone make a trip to the South Coast Hotel in Las Vegas, NV the last Monday and Tuesday of the month. The ABBI will be having there finals and I’m sure there will be some performances that will take your breath away.

Other News:
Over the next few weeks there will be quite a few finals happening. From Circuits to Local Associations to the big three, PBR, USTRCA and PRCA all are biding for your dollar. Do us all a favor and visit as many as you can.

Breaking News:
The CBR and president Tuff Hedeman have announced that the CBR finals are moving to Las Vegas NV in January. They will be held and the Equestrian Center at the South Coast Hotel.

Editorial:
Associations are never right. Someone always feels this way and sometime rightfully so. But after hearing all the crying and squawking about the PRCA’s recent move to discontinue their relationship with the WPRA and start their own barrel association, I only have one thing to say. If you don’t like it, then take your money and go play someplace else! Crying and moaning doesn’t really accomplish anything but making a lot of people from the outside think that the one who may or may not be in the wrong, is actually right. So I’m sorry WPRA things have turned out this way. But right now I’m thinking the PRCA might have made a smart move.
