National Finals Rodeo

Are you planning to visit Las Vegas anytime soon? Do you want an end-year vacation that’s worth remembering and full of entertainment? If that’s you, then mark your calendar that the first week of December, and a total of 10 days, that you’ll be attending the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo.

When and Where is the Wrangler NFR Held?

NFR is the season-ending championship where you can have some of the funniest times ever. If you have never attended a Rodeo, and most probably, you only watch it on television, then you’re missing a lot.

You need to attend it in person and see how much its more exciting than you could have imagined. What can you expect? Never will you see more super cool cowboys’ hats, cowboy boots, big shiny buckles, and not forgetting the tight-fitting jeans elsewhere apart from the Wrangler NFR.

  • Dates – 5th Dec – 14th Dec 2019
  • Venue – Thomas & Mack Center, Las Vegas, NV

Let’s all come and mark the 35th year of the Wrangler NFR in style with 10 days full of entertainment and competitions. See you there.

Who qualifies for the Wrangler NFR?

There are a total of 120 contestants in seven events who compete every night, and only 15 of them make it to the final. The top 15 contestants are chosen according to the PRCA world standing for each event held.

Some of these events include:

  • Bareback riding.
  • Steer wrestling.
  • Saddle bronc riding.
  • Tie-down roping.
  • Team roping (headers and heelers)
  • Barrel racing and bull riding (chosen according to the money earned during the regular seasons).
  • The Justin Boots Playoffs and Championships.
  • PRCA Xtreme bulls tour.

How are champions determined?

For the 10 consecutive days, there are 10 rounds where cowboys and barrel racers earn money depending on their positions in each round.

The first-place slot through sixth in any round, the contestant earns a significant amount of money, and those who earn more are placed first through the eighth round (average points earned or cumulative times during the 10 rounds).

At the end of the Wrangler NFR, the champion is selected depending on the total season earnings. These earnings include what they won before the Wrangler NFR and what they win during the Wrangler NFR.

So, we can have at least two champions in each event, the average winner (one with the best cumulative score or time over the 10 rounds), and the world champion (one who earned the most money in that year).

However, in some instances, the world champion and average winner can either be the same person or different people for each event.

Conclusion

If you want to enjoy your December holiday while in Las Vegas, the Wrangler NFR must be on your bucket list. But make sure to plan ahead and get your tickets as early as possible since things may get pricey and sell out fast as we approach the D-day of Wrangler National Finals Rodeo.

The rates will skyrocket between 5th to 14th December, and therefore, you need to plan and budget, so that you don’t find yourself stranded while in Las Vegas for the rodeo.

NFR 2019: Hotel deals and packages

What could be causing the high room rates?

It’s a clear fact that NFR attracts a lot of visitors to Las Vegas, therefore increasing the demand of the hotels while the supply remains constant. That’s a mathematical aspect, but when it comes to reality, there will be more than 100,000 people expected to attend the show at the Thomas & Mack Center during the first week of December.

Don’t be surprised to find a hotel charging three times to ten times its usual rates. It’s just a business strategy like any other.

You can choose to stay at certain hotels at a lower fee, but you’ll need to walk or request an uber to go to the rodeo shows.

Also, not all hotels have any rodeo events happenings, and these are quite cheap. However, if you want to book a hotel that’s near the Arena and have a lot of events during NFR, then you might need to dig deep into your pockets.

Do you want to be close to the rodeo shows entertainment? Then, book early the hotels that are near the Arena, and you won’t miss out on anything at the NFR.

You can even visit the official Wrangler NFR website or use the mobile app to see the recommended hotels to stay in during the rodeo events.

Hotel Packages for the 2019 NFR

Hotel room rates that are both on and off the Las Vegas Strip have already started to experience surge pricing, and there is nothing you do about it.

Let’s look at some hotel prices as well as testimonials.

A report from hotels.com shows that the hotel properties will be charging more for a room on 7th December as compared to two weeks after the NFR on 21st December. For example, a property near the Las Vegas Strip is charging $135 for a room as compared to its usual rate of $29 a night.

  • Las Vegas OYO hotel & Casino general manager, Tim Kuykendall, had his say that,

“Las Vegas is such a dynamic market that continues to grow.” He went on to add, “When we have major events in the city, the demand for rooms creates compression and drives room rates throughout the city.”

There are 657 rooms in the OYO hotel, and Tim Kuykendall expects all the rooms to be sold out during the NFR.

  • MGM Grand Hotel

A stay at this hotel would need you to pay about $288 on 7th December, which is an excess of $221 if you were to stay in the hotel on 21st December.

  • Harrah’s Hotel

Harrah’s is charging $155 for a room during the event compared to its regular rate of $39.

  • The South Point Hotel Casino & Spa

The South Point is already fully booked, and it might because it’s one of the rodeo’s sponsors hotels and hosts some of the NFR events. The hotel sold out the rooms for $100/night midweek and $159 during weekends.

Conclusion

Are you going to be in Las Vegas between 5th – 14th December 2019 for the Wrangler NFR? Do you want to have epic holiday moments? Then, book early a hotel near the Arena since you don’t miss out on anything.

As far as we know, the NFR has been around since 1985 when it chose Las Vegas as its permanent home, and we bet it will remain in the city until 2024.

Come all, and let’s enjoy the season-ending NFR championships. If you can’t make it to the city, then you can still watch the airing on CBS Sports Network or live stream on ProRodeoTV.com.

Miss Rodeo America History

The Miss Rodeo America Pageant (MRA) started way back since 1956, and the first winner of this coveted title was Marilyn Scott from Wyoming State. The reigning 2019 winner is Taylor McNair from Mississippi. 

In 1955, that is when a group of gentlemen from Nevada led by the serving president of IRM (International Rodeo Management), Ray Peterson, Sr., inaugurated the first pageant competition with only 9 women competing for the Miss Rodeo America title. It was held in Casper, Wyoming.

The MRA has since then being held in different cities, and it was until in 1990 that the competition made Las Vegas, a permanent home. Also, the number of women has increased from 9 contestants to 30 contestants. 

The winner of the MRA receives prizes that amount to over $20,000, and on that particular night, she is given a crown that fits well on her cowboy hat. Other things that the MRA winner receives include scholarships, Justin Boots and Wrangler apparel, belt buckles, and Montana Silversmiths jewelry.

After winning the title of MRA, she is expected to travel for more than 120,000 miles in the year that follows. She makes public appearances in schools as well as other venues to educate people as well as promote the sport of rodeo.

Therefore, the reigning champion becomes a part of a great legacy that has been there and will still continue, and nobody knows when it will come to a halt.

MRA Scholarship foundation began in 1997, and the winner receives $20,000 as an educational scholarship to further her studies, and $1,000 minimum is given to every contestant who competes.

Therefore, the only people who are eligible for this scholarship are those who are listed as contestants in the Miss Rodeo America Pageant.

Also, the general public can make donations to support the sport of rodeo by preserving as well as protecting the legacy of American Cowboy, lifestyle, and Western heritage.

The goal of the foundation has been, and it’s currently is to provide scholarship opportunities to deserving women who qualify for the Miss Rodeo America Pageant. 

These are young women who have won the hearts of people in their states, and they have a duty to represent their home states as well as promote the western way of life and the sport of rodeo. 

They can then further their studies, and some of them have become doctors, nurses, attorneys, teachers, college professors, and television stars, and many more. 

Conclusion

The Miss Rodeo America 2020 Pageant is a show like no other as we select another winner for the coveted title. However, with the scholarship, we can assume that this competition stands for the goodwill of young and talented women.
