Mutton Bustin'

Presented by United Heritage Credit Union

Mutton Bustin' is a crowd pleaser at the rodeo. This event is for all to enjoy, but only for children to participate in.

What is Mutton Bustin' ?

Riders will mount a sheep, hold on tight to the wool, and ride across the arena. The contestant will fall off at some point—this is part of the ride! As with any physical sport, there is a risk of injury. By participating, contestants and guardians acknowledge and accept these inherent risks.
