“Cowboys are asked not to shoot up the town,” read a 1925 headline from Tucson’s Arizona Daily Star. Today the Tucson Rodeo is one of the top 25 professional rodeos in North America, with prize monies exceeding $320,000.
Starting Saturday, February 20 and continuing through Sunday, February 28, Tucson is the perfect place to get your “YEEE-HAW” on. The daily activities include barrel racing, team roping, a parade with more than 200 floats and the Tough Enough to Wear Pink Day (Sunday, February 21, to raise funds for the Susan G. Komen Foundation).
PRO EM Party Concepts is providing tents and other rental items, in particular, the Vaqueros VIP Corporate Tent equipped with tables, chairs, cocktails tables, bar stools and linens.
