What is rodeo slack? It’s the time outside of normal performances when extra contestants compete in the rodeo. Since there are a limited number of slots available for each rodeo event during the performances (and sometimes more contestants than slots), these extra participants perform in the slack.

  • Tie-down roping 
  • Bareback riding 
  • Women's breakaway roping 
  • Steer wrestling 
    
  • Calf scramble

  • Team roping 
  • Barrel racing 
  • Bull riding
  • Ranch bronc riding
