2022 National Western Stock Show’s championship round of rodeo

After having to cancel 2021’s National Western Stock Show and Rodeo, NWSS officials vowed the historic event would return in 2022. Overcoming obstacles and challenges regarding COVID, along with accompanying COVID policies and mandates, the NWSS built enthusiasm and momentum for its rodeo until it all peaked with a jam-packed championship round of rodeo on Sunday Jan. 23, 2022. With a total payout of $595,302, including all 20 pro rodeos and PBR bull riding — the NWSS attracted the biggest names and the best bucking stock in the sport of pro rodeo.
