Nevada’s Silver State Stampede The 101st Annual Silver State


Stampede will be held at the Elko County Fairgrounds in Elko, Nevada, July 11-13, 2013.

The event will showcase the best of rodeo and ranch cowboys. This year, enjoy an evening con-

Old West Bronc Riding is a competi- tion held in the tradition of old-time buckaroos who ride broncs using their own stock saddles and everyday tack. The event simulates actual working conditions of authentic modern-day cowboys, and is open to amateurs and professionals. Friday and Saturday will feature a

Each person must remain in their designated circle as the bull charges, with contestants eliminated if they leave their circle to avoid the bull — a half-ton of athletic, angry hooves and horns. The last man standing (or lying) in his circle wins $500. The Stampede offers spectators high- quality food and beverages, including a fully-stocked Cowboy Bar and a trade show with Western vendors. Everyone is encouraged to wear pink on Saturday night to support the “Tough Enough to Wear Pink” fundraiser. For a schedule of events and more
