Cody Stampede

Our trip to Cody would not have been complete with taking in some rodeo. Well, that we did. During our time there the Cody Stampede was held, this is the big four day event for professional rodeo. We managed to take in two nights of the spectacle. Our first night there was punctuated with a severe thunderstorm complete with lightening and heavy rain. That didn't stop them, the show went on.

Bareback Bronco Riding

Calf Roping


The Women's Barrel Race

The ever popular Bull Riding

The Rodeo Clowns

Here the clown is distracting the bull as the rider is hitting the ground.

The local fireworks show capped off a great evening for the last night of our visit.
