Cowboy Capital of the World PRCA Rodeo

September 26. 27, & 28 - 2025

American Patriot

The WRANGLER American Patriot Program

Over the last several  years, The Cowboy Capital Pro Rodeo Association has proudly presented American Hero Night during the Cowboy Capital of the World PRCA Rodeo. Since the programs creation in 2015,  nearly $100,000 has been awarded to several individual local Military Veterans, Veteran Support Groups, First Responders, and Tarleton State University ROTC as way to say “thank you” for their service to our country and community. In 2018, Wrangler enthusiastically climbed on board to support this portion of the Cowboy Capital of the World PRCA Rodeo. Officially known now as American Patriot Night, the Friday night PRCA Rodeo Performance on September 27, 2024, will pay special tribute to our military heroes. 

The CCPRA’s American Patriot program selects an individual candidate like a veteran in need or an organization that aids our military veterans each year. This program is funded from a portion of Friday nights total rodeo ticket sales and a contribution from Wrangler. The American Patriot program is intended to be a very loving, genuine gesture, and a heartfelt way to say “thank you” for their service. 

If you or your business would like to participate in 2024, please see any CCPRA committee member or contact: Rodeo Stephenville
