NFR QUALIFIERS SOLIDIFIED: Who's Going To The Thomas & Mack?
The 2019 PRCA regular season is officially in the books, and it's time for the UNOFFICIAL top 15 to start celebrating!
As of today, the 2019 Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association regular season is officially in the books, and while we can’t call the PRCA’s World Standings “official” until every rodeo result is submitted and a professional audit is done, the UNOFFICIAL top 15 can at least start the pre-celebration!
They’ve been grinding all year, and they can now breathe knowing that – barring a major change after the audit – they’ve made their Wrangler National Finals Rodeo dreams come true. With the American and Houston being added to the PRCA season, and all of the other top events over the past year, watching that grind all season has been more entertaining than ever.
Relive some of that journey by watching archives of all of the PRCA sanctioned and co-sanctioned events on FloRodeo:
Manitoba Stampede & Exhibition
Medicine Stampede Exhibition & Stampede
Dawson Creek Exhibition & Stampede
With 19 rodeos taking place over the last week of the regular season, some competitors moved mountains to either keep or earn their spot among the top 15 in the world. So with that in mind, FloRodeo believes a congratulations is in order for the unofficial 2019 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo qualifiers!
