The rodeo was great. It would be alot better if all contestants had a chance for the big money. The team ropers get a small fraction if they place or win. 1800.00 compared to 12,500. dollars per go round. Come on share the pot and we will keep supporting RODEO.
Another fabulous year of CFR. What more could a person ask for to represent all that IS Alberta than this event. We have been going every year for countless years and it has become an event we look forward to and get excited about as early as September. The effort, sportsmanship, courage & justifiable pride the athletes portray to offer the excitement this event offers is second to none really. It is the perfect event for the entire family, for an adult evening or even a date. It has everything....excitement, music, laughter, anticipation and the price is reasonable for a night out. It's an old fashioned event that is kept current by the magnitude it is presented with - without compromising or detracting from the very historical original skill it represents. WOO HOO and a YEE HA.
Best dang Rodeo ever!!!!! Seats are so uncomfortable (not your fault).
The rodeo was a amazing event. I lovedevery minute of it. Would recommend it to anyone who is interested in rodeo. The announcers do their jobs so very well and you got to lovecrash cooper
The rodeo was good as always, but didn't last very long. I absolutely love the kids wild horse race, best event ever. But They need a half time show or something to make it last so you get your moneys worth. Felt kinda cheated.
My 18 month old son (the tiniest and cutest cowboy you've ever seen) and I went to the 1pm performance on Saturday November 14th. We had great seats and got to see a lot of action. Thanks to this event my son now says the word "Horsey" perfectly. It will be a memory for us forever :)
We have gone to the rodeo for the last 4 years. We like the excitement of the crowd and the looks on the kids faces. My wife is from a small town and for her it is a real rush to go to the rodeo. I was born and raised on a farm, so I can relate to the riders and what they are doing. I also like the Bull riding, it was always my favorite. The kids also do a great performance with the wild poney riding also.. Ya Ya for the young ladies ,there is a spot in the rodeo for them also. The young men coming up in the ranks for bull riding also is exciting for me to see. I remember when we use to ride the calves on the farm. Well next year we would like to go in the begining and than hit the finals , for the close out performance. We hope the rodeo stays here for a long time.
Excellent show. Loved it. Have been there 6 years in a row and plan to be back again next year
We have attended the CFR for over 25 years and enjoyed it every year. The only problem we noted were in the parking (very expensive) and that the AGRICOM is still not completely renovated. We will probably attend again next year and hopefully there will be improvement in these areas.
Great event to watch but really have to question the judging of some events especially bullriding. The scores the judges give sometimes seemed not to co-inside with the rides
Close races in almost every event made the whole afternoon very exciting. It often came down to the last participant before you knew who won.
The CFR was great again, as usual. Hats off to all those who make it an event to be proud of!
My family of 5 enjoyed the rodeo alot. We would like to see equal money to be won by all events. The team roping needs to be eligible for equal day money as all the other major events are. Good rodeo action in all events.
the Sunday rodeo performance was absolutely incredible. All the cowboys were awesome. Too bad Jesse didnt make the last second of his bull ride it would have been an awesome score. I would recommend it to anyone.
Husband enjoyed the Rodeo I enjoyed the fab. shopping for Western art/fashion and decor at the Dodge City trade Show
This was a top notch performance. I have been to the NFR several times and the whole experience of this evening was equal to or better than any performance i have been at in Las Vegas and the NFR, good work.
I enjoyed the rodeo events. The kids with the wild ponies was awesome. I really disliked the beginning of the rodeo where they presented a bronco horse to some kids from a particular family. I would prefer that kind of preaching be kept personal to them and out of the rodeo. It was too artsy fartsy trying to pull on the audiences heart strings. They tried too hard and made it phoney. Bottom line....leave that kind of sappy play acting out of the rodeo, or place it at the end with the other presentations.
Good if not great event. It was completely spoiled by the announcer (and also the clown) who got so caught up in yelling their inane stories about nothing that they often did it at the expense of talking about who was next in the gate, or how they did, or what their results were, or what their winnings were for the day (like what does third get you total..). It ain't about you two guys. First rodeo in 15 years. Won't be back for another 15.
Very professionally done. Fast paced, set up was accomplished in record time. The trick rider was poor compared to some of her other performances I've seen but the singer was awsome.
