Taylon Carmody gets hung up in his rigging after riding Cliffhanger at the Tucson Rodeo on Feb 23. “Rigging” is the handle the cowboy holds onto while riding and is meant to be undone with two hands after the ride but can get stuck.

Tucson welcomed the 100th annual Tucson Rodeo with six sold-out days of some of the world’s greatest cowboys and cowgirls competing for cash.  The Sunday Finals capped a week of festivities including qualifiers and the Tucson Rodeo Parade.  The winner of each discipline took home over $8,000 lead by Tie Down Roper Kyle Lucas bagging $12,000 from the rodeo.
