Stampede Championship Rodeo

i love going to this event each year. truly a family friendly one that the whole family can enjoy.

49 years of good wholesome family fun. If you haven't been then your missing out on a time forgotten and the Gritty men and women who make it happen. See ya next year for the 50th.

A little bit of everything and not too much of anything!

Christmas present for my hubby! Reserved front row seats for upfront action! Great show!

This was the most boring rodeo I HAVE EVER ATTENDED!!!! The Riders of the Bucking stock were very weak! There was only TWO scores made during the Bronc and Bull riding event. The Calf Roping was not much better, a lot more missing than catching and tieing. At least the Barrel Racers were a little ray of sunshine in the dull show. This is an annuai Rodeo but I will not be a repeat ticket buyer.

Is entertaining, worth the money and makes for a great family night out. Exciting, comical and full of action.

Overall the event was fun. The actual rodeo part was great. The banter between the clown and the announcer I could have done without. They really need to make it more clown antics and less adult humor and picking at each other. Especially on Sunday with all the kids. The competitors worked hard and it was a pleasure to see them compete.

We had a great time at the rodeo! It moved quickly, not a lot of down time between events and the down time was filled with those silly clowns. We'd definitely buy tickets again.

The entire event was well organized and lots of fun

This event was very entertaining with alot of action. Had fun.

rodeo was about the same as ten years ago when i went. however, the announcer kept running his mouth and distracting from the actual event. i know all the sponsors need to get their advertisements in, but take care of the event at hand. also, the "jokes" by the clown and the announcer were a lot "Blue" for the children in the audience. if i were a parent with small children, i would be upset at the inapproperateness.

The rodeo was mainly watching the rodeo clown entertain the crowd, contestants we're not qualifying, by far the worst rodeo I have been to, the seats are way too close together, peoples knees were hitting my shoulders from behind me, definitely not worth what I paid for

was pretty disappointed this year. Not sure if it was beginners this year. Seemed disorganized. We have gone for several years but I will probably not pay the money for it next year.

Boring. Half the contestants weren t there due to weather. We left at half time. Won t waste my money on that again.

This was the best event I have been to in years. It had everything. Music, excitement, comedy, and fun. We all had a blast. I recommend this to anyone and everyone. We will be returning next year. New family tradition!

We had bad weather. Called Berglund to make sure all was still on. Was told all 45 entrents were there. Drive an hour in the snow, 10 riders, minimal vendors, food court was slim pickins. Horrible 50th rodeo anniversary. Have attended for 10 years. Won't go again.

The seats were great, but really needed row 5 for semi-handicapped access. Row 6 had great view, not too far from bucking chutes.

We had front row seats just feet away from the bucking chutes. Much more fun the closer you get, and Ticketmaster provided great seats at decent prices.

This event was a waste of time and money. We only went to see the bull riders, there were only 5 of them and not one of them stayed on for more than 4 seconds. A lot of talking and not much action. The announcer hyped up the riders and made them sound like professional bull riders that were going to Oklahoma for a national event as soon as they were done riding here in Salem but they were a joke. The local bull riding event we used to have in Boonsboro here in Lynchburg was far better than this waste of time and money. I wish I could get a refund as we didnt even stay for the entire show. B-O-R-I-N-G!! Never again...

My husband and I took our 3 children and 2 of their friends to the rodeo. The show was very entertaining. The only complaint that we received was I wish it was longer.

Our first experience with a rodeo. Having horse loving daughters, it was a blast!

The rodeo did not disappoint! It was fast paced and kept the attention of our 4 and 6 year old for 2 solid hours!

Virginia doesn't get many rodeos, so this one is absolutely worth checking out.

The rodeo was all that could be expected. It was a good show beginning to end.

Great show, great family experience. Its fun to see the rodeo from up close.

The Rodeo was a good time had by all. The kids really enjoyed it.

Loved the show, had front row seats at the bucking chutes. Awesome event.

Would not recommend going back. Far from as satisfying as other rodeos attended so far. Seat pricing also not commensurate with value expected.

Clown and side shows where not the best. I would recommend the clown do more than dancing stuff

We had a great time at the rodeo in Salem. Good, clean family fun. My 3 year old is still talking about how much fun she had at the rodeo. She is using her lasso on everything in sight. I would highly recommend this event to anyone who is interested in seeing a great show.

Exciting event, but a little over priced for child's tickets

The whole experience was exciting but the most important thing to me was that my mom enjoyed herself because this was her first time and I really think that she did at one point when I looked over at her the smile on her face was priceless we can't wait until next year to see yall again.

The music was too loud. The clown was a joke and would only dance and not do any jokes or other funny stuff.

Rare opportunity to watch world class riders in my backyard. Really well hosted and a very friendly atmosphere. Even if you are not an equestrian, this makes a great outing if you are into uncanned entertainment.

Love the Rodeo! It always delivers fun, family entertainment....such a talented group of folks. I love watching them compete. One of the few sports where competitors and spectators act like they have good sense and respect for each other. Keep coming to Roanoke!!

Very entertaining. The kids were excited watching the horses and bulls.

This was my girlfriend's and I first rodeo will definitely be going back!

Very good show. enjoyed the barrel racing and the bull riding the most

Since moving to the Lynchburg area we would see the rodeo advertised on TV. We would tell ourselves that we needed to go to the event. Well finally after seven years of telling ourselves it is something we should, we finally went! What took us so long? We had a great time and looking forward to next year. It's family friendly and that is what we plan on doing....bringing the whole family!

Disappointed in the event for the proce that was paid to attend

The rodeo was great. Seats were exactly as shown on ticketmaster. The seats I really wanted were blocked out online, but were sold as regular seats later. Not satisfied with that part of the experience. Overall it was fun and I will go back next year.
