Trevor Brazile thinks rodeo is heading in the right direction because of stars like Stetson Wright and accessibility through The Cowboy Channel and Cowboy Channel+.
“All of the things that are getting our sport into more viewers homes, that is going to be crucial,” he said.
After amassing 26 Gold Buckles and more than $7 million in his career, Brazile thinks seeing some of his records fall would be a positive for rodeo.
“That’s what has to happen to move our sport forward,” he said. “Our sport is way more fun to watch than golf, but if a guy puts a little ball in a little hole and gets paid $1 million, it’s a lot more fun to watch it for that versus $1,200.”
