2007 WRANGLER NFR
BEGINS ON A THURSDAY 

The 49th annual Wrangler National Finals Rodeo returns to the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas as the world’s richest and most prestigious rodeo. For the second year in a row, the Wrangler NFR will begin on a Thursday (December 6th) and end on a Saturday (December 15th).

Each December, the top 15 contestants in bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping, saddle bronc riding, tie-down roping, barrel racing and bull riding qualify to compete at the Wrangler NFR. Qualification is based on the ProRodeo Cowboys World Standings. This year, the prize money for the participants will reach $5.5 million.

During the 10 days of competition, the Wrangler NFR transforms the look and feel of the “Entertainment Capital of the World” as thousands of rodeo enthusiasts decked out in Wrangler jeans, Justin boots and Resistol hats fill hotels, casinos, restaurants, shopping malls and showrooms. Many of the brightest stars in country music also find their way to Vegas during the Wrangler NFR.

So start making your plans now and head to Vegas to experience the Wrangler NFR!
