The other category is timed events. In a timed event, the contestant is judged according to how quickly he or she can complete the given task while meeting all the requirements. This category includes steer wrestling, team roping, steer roping, and barrel racing. Barrel racing is usualy the only event in which women compete. In the other events mostly men compete.
Rodeos are an excellent form of entertainment.
I believe that rodeos are the best choice to symbolize Texas. Ever since I was a little kid, I have so looked foward to attending the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, which is held yearly. It is a very big deal whenever the rodeo comes to town. Rodeos are a big part of larger cities as well as smaller ones. In many small towns, in surrounding areas, a rodeo comes right along with the country fair.
