I think the ones over the 4th will!!! But those are limited entry rodeos. You have to be Indian. Could they sanction, and still limit to a certain race? Anyone can enter Mescalero over the 4th. They dont limit entries and they add enough money...I think...I cant remember exactly how much That is an interesting question....they certainly didn't specify gender or race criteria.....so Indian, All-Black, Gay/Lesbian or All Girl Rodeos could count???? Anyone can enter a black rodeo. I think the gay rodeos are the same way. Not true--some of them won't let non-minority contestants enter, the Bill Picket rodeos being the one that comes to mind. The RCA (Real Cowboys Association) are open to all, and they are a BLAST! Oh, oops. I stand corrected. All the ones I've known about were open to everyone. I think most are open. Some of the gay rodeos might require a membership card, but you don't have to be gay to join in many of them. Actually I knew a board member of IGRA and she was a straight, married lady. Straight people would also compete at their rodeo some years. Most of the "black" rodeos up in my area are all open. Some are invite only but they invite white and black people to go, so it's not race specific.

Interesting question on "invite only". Would that cancel out some of the bigger rodes that are not PRCA sanctioned? Most local "invite only" are still pretty much open, if you hear about it, call and ask to get invited. LOL What about something like Mike & SherryLynn's deal in December? They add enough and get enough players, but it's only Calf Roping and Barrels. Also what about the Bulls and barrels deals. ** I am pretty sure Bill Pickets are the only ones that are exclusively Black rodeos. I have been able to enter every one we have stopped at but those.

Those are definitely out.....the rodeo has to have all seven events.

Location: In my own little world	clover girl - 2015-10-30 11:45 AM MOTIVATED - 2015-10-30 12:10 PM ropenrun - 2015-10-29 5:12 PM There are some Indian Rodeos that will fit the criteria I believe. I think the ones over the 4th will!!! But those are limited entry rodeos. You have to be Indian. Could they sanction, and still limit to a certain race? If the rules that were printed in this forum are the exact set of tules (without going to the ERA site to look), they say nothing about being limited to who can enter, only that they have to except 36 entries. If that is the case, then the INFR circuit rodeos that have $5000 added should count. And there have been Indian rodeos with $10K added per event. Time will tell how well it was all thought out, if there are any loopholes, if rules change as they go, or if anything goes!
