National Western Stock Show
Mutton Bustin’ entries open
Entries for the 2008 National Western Stock Show Mutton Bustin’ are now open.
The competition takes place during the National Western Rodeo, January 12-27,
2008.
One of the most popular attractions at the annual rodeo, the Mutton Bustin’
features young cowpokes clinging to sheep as hard as they can for as long as
they can. Like the standard rough stock events, time and score count. But, all
the contestants receive trophies for their courage and effort.
Hopeful applicants should send a postcard with their name, address, phone
number, date of birth and weight to National Western Mutton Bustin’, 4655
Humboldt Street, Denver, CO 80216 before Nov. 30. All applications will be
entered in random drawing to take place in December. Only the winners will be
notified. Only one entry per child will be accepted. All contestants are
eligible to compete at the National Western Mutton Bustin’ only once.
Children must be between the ages of 5 and 7 and weigh less than 55 pounds as
of Jan. 1, 2008.
The West’s largest annual agricultural exhibition, the National Western Stock
Show features the nation’s fifth richest professional rodeo, Colorado’s largest
indoor trade show and more than 15,000 head of animals during its 16-day run.
The 2008 National Western Stock Show runs Jan. 12-27. For more information,
please contact the National Western Stock Show at (303) 297-1166 or visit
