Rodeo in the United States is a pure reflection of the spirit of the American West, and it’s a tradition rooted in the folklore and culture of the country. And in South Dakota, it’s not only the official sport - it’s a way of life.
Join us as we go on a wild ride at the Black Hills Stock Show and Rodeo where over 300,000 people from all over the world descend on Rapid City to watch over 120 different events. We join a father and son team at the ranch rodeo, cheer on Gill the border collie at the sheep dog trials, take part in a bachelor cattle auction and watch seven-year-old Kreed hang on to a sheep for dear life in mutton bustin’.
- Brian Thacker, presenter
