If you want a real 1890s feel and an authentic celebration, join us! Tom Horn Days is centered around three action-packed days of rodeo. And not the kind of rodeo you are used to. This event is a pasture rodeo where no events are held in the usual controlled arena (except barrel racing). Instead, rain or shine, cowboys take to the open prairie where both horses, steers, and cowboys can showcase their full range of motion and ability, making this a truly spectacular event. - from Travel Wyoming
What About Bob Chuckwagon Races

The What About Bob Chuckwagon Races is a multi-day event held annually on the Ward Ranch near Wilburton, Oklahoma. Scout and I camped out on the ranch along with many others. There were a number of food and other vendors but no Verizon phone service. I didn't have Starlink yet so had to drive into Wilburton in order to upload and publish content that week.
Now that I do have Starlink service I would love to come back and attempt to do a live-stream coverage if that is acceptable to the head honchos. New videos from 2922 are still being published every Thursday and can be viewed below.

The Competition playlist on Dusty Reins Stories is embedded above starting with the newest video and continuing to the oldest. Most of the videos do not appear on any other playlist due to the variety of the competitions. I am including some examples from the playlist below.

White Deer, Texas is a thriving community located on US 60 between Amarillo and Pampa. I came here twice to mainly document the UPRA-sanctioned rodeos held each year that drew sellout crowds.
The rodeos are held during the annual Kickback Days celebration so I returned to document the other activities that go on each year as you can watch below.
The 2021 celebration kicked off with the annual parade.

Since 1888, Canadian, visitors and locals have kicked their July Fourth weekend off right with the "Best Fourth of July Parade in Texas." The town hosts a watermelon feed, a Fourth of July parade, and an annual turtle race. Throughout the weekend, the oldest public rodeo in the world kicks off. Stay through the evening for live music, dining and shopping, and the best little fireworks show in Texas. (Canadian Chamber Of Commerce)
Celebration events during 2024 included three pro rodeos, a parade, turtle racing, chicken poop bingo, and water polo.
