 Don't Wanna Make This Awkward
Posts: 3106
   Location: Texas | First the horrible ground for the barrel racers then I saw Tuf Cooper(I think( got DQ'd yesterday, and today Callie DuPerier getting DQ'd.. Unbelievable.. Does anyone know exactly why they DQ'd Callie? She had a pretty good run, her time was gonna get $3500 today, so that's a big loss. I heard it was because she circled before running to the first.. |

| They should make a rule that THEY need to work the ground properly and follow their own rule.

| Callie didnt keep a forward motion, and Tuf got sent home for excessive roughness to his horse. |

| Keeping forward motion is a rule at a lot of rodeos and big races. On the results page they have her as winning third,I wonder if they contested the call and it was overturned. She is also listed as second in money earned pool B . Tuf Cooper is no where to be found in todays results.

     Location: Texas | I read the calgary rules and read about "honest effort" but didn't see anything specific about circling or forward motion. reading WPRA rules now.
Yeah WPRA rules say you can't circle pivot or spin when setting up in an arena but it just says you can be fined, doesn't say you will be DQed.

Yes, I saw the video, horse was not firing and he over and undered it with his rope several times. |

       Location: South Central Florida | A lot of rodeo's have the "forward motion" rule. I am really suprised any one would do that at a rodeo anywhere...especially one this big.
She is listed in the money for the day but I guess we won't know until maybe tomorrow if that's accurate. |

Calgary has their own set of rules that trumps PRCA and WPRA. |

Is it because they are a Canadian rodeo? |

I did check and it is WPRA approved and counts for the NFR.

If you have DirecTv or Dish you can see it on WatchESPN, you just have to login with your provider's account login. There may be other places to watch it, this is where I have been watching. |
