Dust off those boots and saddle up, North Texas. The 37th Texas Black Invitational Rodeo rides into Fair Park Coliseum at 7 p.m. this Saturday, July 25. Presented by the African American Museum, Dallas, the family-fun event features cowboys and cowgirls competing in bronc and bull riding, steer roping, barrel racing, and more.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s event pays tribute to the late Cleo Hearn, National Rodeo Hall of Famer and founder of the Cowboys of Color Rodeo, who spent more than 50 years breaking barriers and educating audiences on the diverse history of the American West.<\/p>\n

Fans can also enjoy the crowd-favorite Pony Express relay race, live music, concessions and plenty of heart-pounding competition.<\/p>\n

Tickets start at $28 at aamdallas.org\/events, or at the door, with proceeds benefiting the African American Museum. Don\u2019t wait \u2013 tickets often sell out in advance. Doors open at 6 p.m., so come early to enjoy every moment.<\/p>\n
