Breakaway roping was added to the lineup of events for the first time this year at the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, and 2X world champion Hope Thompson became the first to throw her rope. Reporter Amy Wilson talked to Thompson about how she felt going into the competition,
“Oh man, I wish I could put it into words,” she said. “It’s crazy, It’s to date, this is the biggest rodeo that we as breakaway ropers have gotten to enter, So if you’re going to be first, might as well make history, right?”
