Marvin Garrett Rough Stock Series

Pennington Events Center, Rapid City, SD
7:00PM Showtime Each Evening
Get ready for pure rodeo!
It’s the fastest-paced, fastest-growing event series in professional rodeo today and it’s easy to see why. The Marvin Garrett Roughstock Series is coming to the Black Hills at the Pennington Events Center in Rapid City, SD, October 24th-25th. The series matches world champion cowboys against world champion livestock in rodeo’s three roughest events- bareback, saddle bronc and bull riding. It’s all out war when this extraordinary collection of rodeo’s meanest broncs and bulls get in the same room with the sports toughest and most-talented cowboys.
The competition is intense, with thousands in prize money and the coveted Roughstock Buckle on the line. You’ll see raw talent, bad-mannered livestock and unscripted results!
The event not only showcases the very best of rodeo’s 8-second rides, but also includes an appearance by one of the fastest rising duets in country music today- “Joey & Rory.” Joey Martin and Rory Feek combine the talents of a gifted vocalist and a hit songwriter to create a chemistry that is only possible through the love they share for one another. As a husband and wife duo, they were finalists on the hit TV series ‘Can You Duet’, which introduced them to millions of country music fans across the country. Joey’s not just a country singer, she is country. She knows her way around horses, barns and cattle and she ropes on the side rolling up her sleeves up working like a cowhand. As the other half of Joey & Rory, Rory, a songwriter, has written three #1 records in the last few years (Blake Shelton’s “Some Beach”, Clay Walker’s “The Chain of Love” and Collin Raye’s “Someone You Used To Know”) and has cuts by Kenny Chesney, Randy Travis, Terri Clark, Mark Wills, Reba McEntire, Waylon Jennings, Lorrie Morgan, Buck Owens, John Michael Montgomery and Charlie Pride to name a few.
The Marvin Garrett Roughstock Series is produced by four-time World Champion and Rodeo Hall of Fame bareback rider Marvin Garrett with the assistance of Spud Whitman, a highly respected accomplished bull rider of PBR fame. Through the live events and the accompanying televised broadcasts, Marvin’s mission is to grow rodeo’s fan base by providing quality entertainment and educating viewers to present the very best of rodeo to a regional, national and world-wide audience.

The History and
Philosophy of the Marvin Garrett Roughstock Series
The
Marvin Garrett Roughstock Series is a rodeo event
that features the best cowboys matched with the best
stock in the three events; bareback riding, saddle
bronc and bull riding. It is produced by four time
World Champion and Hall of Fame Bareback Rider
Marvin Garrett. His life's work has been the sport of
rodeo and his reputation in the industry is second
to none. The respect he has earned throughout his
career has allowed him to put together a unique
combination of stock and cowboys. Marvin is joined
by, Spud Whitman, and a highly respected
and well accomplished PBR bull rider. Spud brings
his knowledge and experience as one of the starting
members of the PBR.
The
Marvin Garrett Roughstock Series originated with a
one day event in 2000 that featured National Finals
Rodeo cowboys and the best stock competing before a
sold out crowd. This event has filmed and later
broadcast on the Outdoor Channel with people from
12.5 million homes tuning in. The event has since
grown into an annual series with multiple events
televised regionally, earning the status of being
one of the highest rated show in it's time slot.
The
Marvin Roughstock Series has been described as the
fastest growing, most exciting, most talked about
event in Rodeo today. The skill and traditions shown
with Roughstock makes it a natural for becoming a
national and international event. As the West is
part of our heritage, people around the world are
captivated with that part of history. Our mission is
to provide a family oriented, educational approach
to tapping into the "old west" interest and present
the best in the world to local, regional, national,
and world-wide audiences with live performances and
televised broadcasts.
The
Marvin Garrett Roughstock Series wishes to provide
cowboys with the opportunity of earning the
income that should come with being a professional
athlete, in comparison to any other professional
sport. |
