| Longneck - 2015-12-03 12:16 PM All top 15 do get a saddle, but I'm not sure if they're donated or what... but they seem to match up pretty well with the riders so I assume they get to have some say in picking them out. I believe they bring their own grand entry horse, but I'm not 100% certain. I am constantly checking my Instagram and Snapchat for updates.. it's so intriguing!! Saddles are donated and from what I recall they are given as a lottery type thing - so every saddle is different and donated by a different person/saddle maker. You don't get to "pick" who your saddle goes to, if memory serves.
Their entry fees are covered by the NFR Events sponsorships, also from memory, may have changed over the years and their rooms are comp'd as well.
Grand entry horses are often used by multiple people and swapped out when needed, for victory laps and the like.
If anyone knows more, feel free to jump in, what little I know I'm sharing.............

Location: Texas | I follow Fallon on snap chat and her sidekick stormy. I think stormy is hilarious, plus she posts some things that Fallon doesnt. I don't send snaps to anyone, I am only on it to follow pro barrel racers lol. Have Jackie too. Fallon is doing a great job of snapping as much as she can. |

I've been glued to Fallon and Stormey's snap chat stories for like 4 days.
They make this EXTRA fun.
Edited to add it is hilarious that the WARMUP PEN is as major of a cluster at the NFR as it is everywhere else.

Fallon also a snapped that her grand entry horse was no longer available so if someone has a pony in Vegas she will buy it for the grand entry.... all I can picture is her coming in the arena on a Shetland lol. |

| I just don't get a woman's need to dress so scantily. Put some clothes on...the back number ceremony is R rated...how very very sad. My personal opinion. |

I saw a ton of fashion posts on Facebook... Didn't see anyone dressed inappropriately IMO. They all looked gorgeous, barrel racing contestants, wives, girlfriends, everybody! |
