Cowboy Capital of the World Pro Rodeo
PLEASE NOTE: Do NOT trust google maps with arena address. Put Hard 8 BBQ in map (1091 Glen Rose Hwy, Stephenville, TX). Then from 4-way stop at Hard 8, turn East on Hwy 67 towards Glen Rose, go 4.5 miles to arena entrance on left. *Do not go to Dublin Hwy
The will and strength of rodeo cowboys are like NONE OTHER.
The 2024 World Champion Bareback Rider, Dean Thompson, was diagnosed with Burkitt’s Lymphoma in March (during a random buck off trip to the ER for a hurt wrist). TONIGHT, barely 4 months later he got on his first bucking horse since being declared CANCER FREE.
If you weren’t a fan of Dean before…now is your chance. God is good! Follow his story y’all!

Western Bloodstock LTD. is committed to the horse - as evident by the reputation they have established in marketing the worlds finest performance horses for over 25 years. With upcoming sales this fall like the NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity Sale and the NCHA Futurity Sale, they are the best place to consign or buy.
The Cowboy Capital of the World Ranch Rodeo is extremely proud to partner with Western Bloodstock as we celebrate the working ranch cowboy (and their horses) this September. A cowboy is only as good as the horse he rides and there is no where better to celebrate a good horse, than at Stephenville’s Ranch Rodeo.
