If you fancy yourself as a cowboy or girl don your stetsons and boots and come down to the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas in December where you can see what a real cowboy can do. This ten day rodeo competition to find the best of rodeo best has bull riding, steer wrestling, saddle bronc riding, and bare back riding competitions and is attended by more than 50,000 people.

The final night draws sell out crowds of more than 18,000, so you’ll need to get your tickets early if you’re hoping to be there. If you can’t get in the event is televised nationally. Many Vegas hotel and casinos take on a western theme for the event and country and western stars headline many local cabarets and showrooms.
