Looking For Something to Watch Other than the Superbowl on Sunday?


How about tuning in to the live feed for the National Reined Cowhorse Celebration of Champions?
"At the NRCHA Celebration of Champions, the NRCHA World Championship Show presented by John Deere features the top horses and riders from each of the NRCHA's eight geographic regions competing for World Championship titles in twelve exciting events. In the World's Greatest Horseman, it is all about one horse, one rider and one very impressive title. In one bit, horses compete in four contests: herd work, rein work, steer stopping and cow work. The NRCHA Celebration of Champions also includes the Circle Y Ranch Derby for 4- and 5-year-old cow horses."
