To Rowdy bullfighting is a way of life. He is an American Professional Bullfighter member, a veteran of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association and has been around rodeo all his life. Rowdy was the 1995 Canadian National Finals Wrangler Bullfighter, 1992 NFR Wrangler Bullfighter, 1993-94 Dodge National Circuit Finals Wrangler Bullfight Champion, 5 time National High School Rodeo Bullfighter and was voted 8 times Columbia River Circuit Finals Bullfighter.

                    Bullfighter Ryan Wilson

 

                         

Ryan Wilson is a resident of Kennewick, Washington and makes his home at the Wild R Ranch. He travels rodeo to rodeo every weekend entertaining crowds and saving professional cowboys. Ryan has been fighting bulls for five years now and has an impressive resume with some of the top events in the P.B.R. and the P.R.C.A. Ryan has a life outside the arena as well, while he is not saving cowboys and dodging a 2000 pound bull he is participating in something else exciting whether it be riding young colts and roping cows or taking care of the ranch he calls home. And if all else fails you can find him hanging out with friends and a big smile on his face. Ryan is ready and can’t wait to see you at your rodeo this year.

 

Frontier Days Rodeo Barrel Man:   Walla Walla's own JJ Harrison                 

JJ Harrison is doing what he has dreamed of since he was a little boy.....entertaining people by being himself.   JJ has been around rodeo as a competitor, committee person, contract act and fan. He gives the audience something to watch at every break in the rodeo action.  His "walk and talk" antics in conjunction with his dancing, continue to excite fans.   With humor and "class clown" antics this entertainer is sure to be a hit again this year with the Walla Walla Rodeo Fans.

Walla Walla Rodeo History: In 1913 the wild and wooly Frontier Days Rodeo came to town. It's been kickin' around ever since. In 1938 the rodeo made a dramatic appearance when the first complete lighted night rodeo was held. It's come a long way over the years…and it's ours.
