I saw the results on Facebook yesterday with Robyn Herring winning. So, is it just the top qualifiers there that move on? When does Charmayne James come in to the picture?

The 10 qualifiers from five different qualifying races ran in a long go and the top 20 go to the Semi-Finals which is this week-end. The top 10 will go to the American which is March 2 at Arlington, Texas. Charmayne will run in The American race with the 10. After that go, the top 4 will run in a shoot out to determine the top 2. I hope I explained it okay.

Thank you. So, the race at Mesquite, TX yesterday was the top 20 qualifiers and those top 10 move forward??

Where are the NFR ladies at? I didn't see any of them in the race yesterday.

1000100100100
To answer your question LRQHS- NO, WE CAN'T! There is a whole website devoted to explaining it, and after reading it, I'M STILL confused! One thing that confused me was learning the guy events take the top 5 from the Mesquite semifinals, but the barrel race (OPPS, I forgot, that was also a "guys" event... sorry) but the barrel race is taking back the top 10. So half of the ladies (aarrggh, messed that one up again as a man DID make it back to the semifinals) and ONE GUY that run in the semifinals can make it to Arlington to run for the CHANCE to win or split a purse held out specifically for the specially qualified contestants (or non-pros as some are calling them, though I think Talmadge Green, would beg to differ his amateur status) IF THEY WIN their event. If they come in 2nd, too bad, NADA from the BIG SIDE PURSE! IF any other "non-pro" contestant WINS their event, then you split the purse in half, if 3 thirds, etc, etc..... WHEW.... This IS confusing me... NOW, to give the the WHOLE picture, there is another 1 million dollar purse that is being divided between ALL contestants at the American who end up in the placings. SO, the "Non-pro, non-rodeo" contestants (who actually CAN be rodeo contestants, hold a pro-card, and could have even had been to this years NFR, AND also be Professionals based on their IRS forms) get a chance at TWO different $1,000,000 purses! It's just the payout for those purses are structured different from each other. OMG, now I see why I was/am confused. REGARDLESS, I think it has been GREAT FUN! A GREAT IDEA, and I would have loved to be part of it. I HOPE it happens again next year!! But, to save yourself the agony of trying to figure this out, I think I have to say your question is simply too complicated to be answered by me......

Opps, never mind. All that garble I just rambled out was totally unnecessary. I just re-read your first post instead of simply answering your "Subject" line. Charmayne come into play in Arlington! That was easy! And after the Mesquite performances tonight and tomorrow are run, the top 10 from the combined performances move on from there to Arlington.

Dial It was hurt and Shada ran Rascal at a rodeo in San Antonio?  Do I have my TX city right?  She did awesome running him, that horse is tricky.  So I wonder if she's going to run him at The American?  Also the fact that mother daughter have an excellent chance of competing against each other is so very cool.

Does anyone know if something happened to Rare Dillion? During the first broadcast, they said somthing about him (or his rider) being the only scratch.

Dillons new owner/rider was hurt by a different horse and cant compete. They would have beenright in there. Will look forward to watching Callie and Dillon in the future.

 Can someone explain why they are not taking the same number from Mesquite in each event to The American? Also, did anyone ever find out how many bull riders from the NFR to The American. I just heard top 10 PBR. Then Justin said only 16 would compete in bull riding at the American. He said they were only taking 1 bull rider from Mesquite to The American. One of those 16 has to be their exemption, Justin McBride.

  10 PBR, 1 Mesquite, and Justin McBride totals 12 bull riders. So where are the others from to equal 18? I could have sworn Justin McKee said only 16 bull riders would compete next Sunday. I hate it that PRCA bull riders were kind of shafted here. I guess I don't understand why more barrel racers from Mesquite are going on than in the other events. Their Facebook page says top 10 Mesquite barrel racers and top 5 Mesquite steer wrestlers, calf ropers, team ropers, bareback riders, and saddle bronc riders move on to The American next week. They announced on the show that only the top one bull rider from Mesquite moves on to next week. I just wondered why they aren't taking the same number in each event.

To go with my other question......LOL  Who is the bareback riding exemption?

We know Charmayne, Justin McBride, Dan Mortenson, and Ote Berry.
We know the matches for calf roping..... Fred and Joe.
We know the matches for team roping... Jake B, Clay O, and Speed.
I haven't seen who the bareback riding exemption will be.

sorry...that should have been 5 qualifiers.....for a total of 17.....maybe one is out or something....there were five qualifying events and the top rider at each event got a spot......there names are on the american site.......but i'm not sure why they keep saying 16 unless one of them is out....injury????

Well the exemptions in team roping and calf roping just changed.  They took them all.  Jake B one the match and Fred was his match.  Randy Bernard announced they were taking all of them Jake B, Speed, Clay O, Fred, and Joe B. 

I still haven't seen or heard if they have a bareback exemption.

I was reading on the American facebook page that not all are happy about the last minute change of team roping and calf roping exemptions. You all should go read who has responded. I understand their complaint. Once you make the rules, you should stick to them. Either way it is certainly exciting.

I have missed that so far (the unhappiness that is)- but I think it is great. And I figured they would roll the million but they are going to spread it out if no one wins it.

I posted on facebook- I predict it will be two studs and two mares in the final 4. Slick, Skye, Happy and Cervis mare. My wildcard is the Royal Star Commander- if he is focused-Im not sure he can be outran. Of course for legends sake- Id love to see Charmayne in the final four but I just dont know what to expect from her- as I have not even seen where she has gone to a public event and placed?? Not that she certainly isnt capable.

For the fans sake- Id love it to be Charmayne, Sherry, June and Kay.

it is exciting....and it's their deal, they can do what they what and make the rules as they go......it's on the ground floor and to make this a yearly massive entertainment event, they need to kind of wing it to start with.....not too much though.... 

i did go and read it and it seems that it's probably even as to who is happy about these guys getting in and who's not.....the way bigger outpouring is for Kelly Wardell to get a bareback examption....go kelly....!!!

I LOVED his dance he did when he covered his horse, and i'm no expert by any means, but i thought his ride was better than the score he got (or maybe i'm just biased after i saw his interview and reason for wanting to win the $$)

The woman that runs BBR (name on the tip of my tongue but buried in my brain!) said on one the early shows (last fall) on RFD that she negotiated with RFD to take 10 qualifiers in the barrel race.  Good for her! 

I sure hope they have it again next year in a similar format!  I even found the draft how interesting!

Kelly would be very deserving of an exemption.  That guy has worked so hard and obviously having a blast doing this again.

Kelly Wardell is the bomb! Hands down he needs to get an award for being the most dedicated to getting back in shape to commit although many did and I take my hat off to them.

I hope someone with money saw Kelly's story about wanting to start a kid's camp and they back him. How awesome would that be.

sodapop - 2014-02-23 9:32 PM I was reading on the American facebook page that not all are happy about the last minute change of team roping and calf roping exemptions. You all should go read who has responded. I understand their complaint. Once you make the rules, you should stick to them. Either way it is certainly exciting.
What is the specific name of the American Group? Thanks!

it is exciting....and it's their deal, they can do what they what and make the rules as they go......it's on the ground floor and to make this a yearly massive entertainment event, they need to kind of wing it to start with.....not too much though.... 



i did go and read it and it seems that it's probably even as to who is happy about these guys getting in and who's not.....the way bigger outpouring is for Kelly Wardell to get a bareback examption....go kelly....!!!

It is very exciting.  By this time next year, the rules will be definite and written in stone I am sure.  I can't wait to watch this.  I enjoyed watching yesterday.  I like all the guys they let go on with the exemptions.  I agree Kelly Wardell is like a machine!  Wow.  Did you see those 50 year old abs?

I have missed that so far (the unhappiness that is)- but I think it is great. And I figured they would roll the million but they are going to spread it out if no one wins it.



I posted on facebook- I predict it will be two studs and two mares in the final 4. Slick, Skye, Happy and Cervis mare. My wildcard is the Royal Star Commander- if he is focused-Im not sure he can be outran. Of course for legends sake- Id love to see Charmayne in the final four but I just dont know what to expect from her- as I have not even seen where she has gone to a public event and placed?? Not that she certainly isnt capable.



For the fans sake- Id love it to be Charmayne, Sherry, June and Kay.  

I would love to see June Holeman go in there and smoke a run.  I also hope Charmayne does too. Really, I am just rooting for everyone, but would like to see those two stand out for sure.

She is 70 years old.  I think at 70 the chances of her winning at this level for many, many years to come is unlikely.  Her big success has come later in life. She said in her interview that this horse is probably her last great one. Tugged at my heart. From everyone I've ever talked to that knows her says she is a great person too.  At one time she use an old ambulance to pull her horse trailer.  She sounds pretty resourceful and interesting.

In her interview she said she was "70 and a half". LOL  I loved it.  She qualified for her first NFR in her 60's I believe.

Are you kidding me?  How many 70 yr olds can run a multitude of different horses at a Pro level?  Not just pro level but the top of the pros.  Your comment baffles me and totally rubs me the wrong way.

I had trouble understanding the payout system for the $1 million, but found this today. The "not" top 10 winners (if they win the event) will be in a pot to split the $1 million. Can't wait to watch it this weekend!


THE AMERICAN will consist of the top 10 barrel racers in the world free of entry fees, as well as, the 10 contestants that qualified through the Qualifiers and Semi-Finals, and the Exemption or Exemption Match winner (making a field of 21). THE AMERICAN will be two runs. All 21 competitors will have one run, with the top 4, after that run, moving on to a shootout round that will determine the champion and reserve champion (one run determination, not average on 2).

The champion will win $100,000 and the reserve champion will win $25,000. In the case that the champion came from the "not" top-10, they will place themselves in a pot for the chance to win $1,000,000.

Who wins the million?" Pam from Missouri asked. Bernard explained that the million-dollar prize is set up in the qualifiers and exemptions. As an example, Bernard said, if a tie down qualifier and barrel racer qualifier both win their events, they will both split the million dollars.
