2012 NATIONAL FINALS RODEO EXPERIENCE:
NFR Venue: Thomas and Mack Center
NFR Location: Las Vegas, Nevada
Since 1959, hundreds of cowboys have headed to the National Finals Rodeo (NFR) to become king of one of the event’s seven divisions (bareback riding, barrel racing, bull riding, saddle bronc riding, steer wrestling, team roping and time-down roping). At the end of the day, however, there will only be one overall champion left standing in the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas. Will you be there to see him crowned this year?
The NFR is put on each year by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA), who invites the top fifteen money-earners in the league to Vegas. They are put through ten rounds of competition over ten days, with the top eight given prize money. Combined with their year-to-date bounties, the division champions are determined by their overall gross. The final purse—which this year is expected to be close to $6 million—is divided up by the champions, with the overall winner getting a fancy solid gold belt buckle.
The high purse amount is the main reason why the NFR left Oklahoma City, where it had been hosted for twenty years before heading west. In 1984, the business leaders of Las Vegas offered $800,000 more in prize money than their OKC counterparts, an offer the PRCA couldn’t refuse. Luring the NFR to their city has become a boon to one of the few sleepy times of the year. Hotels are now filled to capcity, sports books are hosting events centered around the NFR and there’s even a “Cowboy Christmas Gift Show” in the Convention Center that runs throughout the 10-day event.
