Statesboro Kiwanis Rodeo

Description

Rodeo has a unique quality of origin to which no other professional sport can lay claim. It emerged from an industry… from the daily routine and tasks of a low paying job with long hours performed by ranch hands who came to know very well the animals with which they lived. If it were any other kind of job, leisure hours might have produced another kind of ball game rather than a recreation involving the very animals one had already spent long hours tending. But cowboying has always been more of a way of life than a job or an opportunity to get rich.
