P MONOPOLIZE AT/ pcxzcul j THE ORIGIN OF RODEC In the early days of the cat j tie industry, before the adven of the barbed wire fence, cattl< of one rancher would stray a cross the imaginary bounda:'] which was supposed to sepa rate the ranches, and mingl< with the cattle of anothe: rancher. It was from the argument: and wagers made among thi cowboys of the different ranch es of a section while on round up together that it became < j custom to hold an impromptv riding and roping contest a1 the close of many roundups tc settle the question as to which ranch was the home of the fastest roper of best bronc rid er. These contests, while visited principally only by the contestants and the few ranch es in a section, were the step ping stones to our great ro deos of today, for in order to settle an argument as to best ropers and riders of a much larger section there was held at Pecos, Tex., July 4, 1883, the first riding and roping contest where cash prizes were award ed to the winners. This was a big public rodeo, but spectators were not charg ed an admission fee. The con test was field In the open flat near the court house and the prizes were $25 first and $15 second. Morgan Livingston, top hand of the NA ranch won the steer roping, and Trav Windham, bow of the Lazy 7 was second. There was no fenced in arena, and only two events, steer roping and bronc riding. At a Fourth of July Celebra tion, at Prescott, Ariz., in 1888. the first rodeo or cowboy con test in which cash prizes were awarded to the winners and an admission charged the spectat or, was held. It was called a tournament, and in addition to races there were only two e vents, steer roping and bronc riding, both won by Jaun Le vias. North Platte lays claim to staging a rodeo as a Fourth of Julv Celebration, in 1883. with CoT. Wm. F Cody, as chairman but all records that we have been able to dig up seem to point out that this affair was just a tryout of cowboys for the Buffalo Bill Wildwest Show, and we cannot find any records of any prizes having been awarded, and until other records are brought to refute it. Prescott, Ariz., will have the distinction of staging the first American (box office) ro deo. In 1896. a big well adver tised rodeo was staged in Denver. Colo-, but was not a f inane is success, in fact there was so much work and expense to getting up a three off four day contest, that there were few of the early ones that were financially successful. In 1897, Wyoming's great an nual rodeo “Cheyenne Frontier Days” was organized and while it had financial difficulties in it$ first few years it endured and is today the oldest rodeo in America, its slogan, “the daddy of them all” is correct. Up until about 25 years ago, rodeos were staged only in op en arenas and practically all of them in summer, the contest ants usually worked on ranch es between rodeos. Now the rodeo season extends through out the year with more than 150 well advertised rodeos during a season and admissions running into the millions.
