Rodeo Rapid City is synonymous with the Sutton Rodeo Company for decades.
Steve Sutton joined Western Sports Roundup to break down some of the bulls that will be competing at the Rodeo Rapid City Xtreme Bulls on Jan. 29. It is the first X Bulls event of the year and the winner will have an early leg up on the rest of the top bull riders in the PRCA.
The bulls Sutton highlighted were Rock N’ Roll Fantasy, High Roller, Bent Rail, Safety Meeting and Smooth Wreck. The first three he owns and the latter two are from Chad Berger and Dakota Rodeo Company.
On Rock N’ Roll Fantasy: “He’s been a cowboy favorite, he bucks them all off if they stub their toe. If they don’t, they win first place.”
On High Roller: “I can name five or six NFR guys that’ve drawn him and won of one our bigger rodeos.”
On Bent Rail: “He’s one of our news ones........We raise all of our bucking horses and go out around the country to find some good bulls.”
On Safety Meeting and Smooth Wreck: “That one (Safety Meeting) and Smooth Wreck are both bulls that he (Chad Berger) said were top of his pen maybe, which is hard for him to say when he’s got 250 good bulls.”
