This was the beginning of the world famous Pendleton Round-up. Seven major PRCA events are run each day on a grass arena, plus pony express races, Indian and baton races, wild horse races, wild cow milking and much more. In fact, every event is run with clock like precision. That's what has give the Round-up the title of the fastest moving rodeo in America. The show portrays the early American Indian culture and emigrates, seeking a new life, come to the frontier and soon the two cultures clash.
Fighting breaks out and then peace comes and the scene changes to that of a wild frontier town.
