Guidelines

Prescott Frontier Days, Inc. and World’s Oldest Rodeo is pleased to offer Mutton Bustin’ as a pre-rodeo event! We want everyone to have a safe, fun, and memorable event so please be aware of the following  guidelines so that everything goes as smoothly as possible.

  • ONLY A PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN MAY REGISTER A CHILD IN THE MUTTON BUSTIN’ EVENT. NO EXCEPTIONS.
  • The entry fee for Mutton Bustin’ is $15.  Entries limited to 12 each night.
    Each participant receives one rodeo ticket for themselves and one rodeo ticket for one parent/guardian. (other family members will need to purchase their own tickets: contact the rodeo office for the Mutton Buster ticket block)
  • ONLY CHILDREN BETWEEN AGES 4 and 7 and NOT exceeding 55 pounds may ride in the Mutton Bustin’ event.
  • Please check in at the Mutton Bustin’ booth when you arrive at the rodeo. The Mutton Bustin’ check-in table will be near the main ticket booth on the east end of the grounds. A signed release form (available online) must be signed by a parent and turned in at check-in. Failure to check-in before the rodeo performance and return the signed waiver will result in forfeiting your child’s participation and entry fee.
  • At check in the rider will get a commemorative back number and safety pins. Please pin the Mutton Buster’s number on the back of their shirt prior to the event.
  • According to PRCA safety requirements, all contestants must wear long sleeved shirts, long pants, and sturdy shoes or boots. No spurs. Protective vests and helmets will be provided or they can wear their own hockey helmet with full cage if they prefer.
  • One adult may accompany the contestant into the rodeo arena. No food or drinks allowed. Adults who enter the arena should also wear sturdy shoes and are expected to follow instructions from the arena staff and sheep wranglers. PLEASE stay back, on the fence, or on one knee, so the crowd can see the riders.
  • After contestants ride, rodeo staff will be on hand to quickly pick them up, get them out of the protective gear, and line them up for their final bows. It is important that we do not block the view of the spectators, and that things move along quickly.
  • After the last contestant has ridden, the children will be taken to the center arena for photo ops and crowd appreciation.
  • Prizes: Trophy Buckle is awarded to the winner of each night. There is also a commemorative WOR Back #.
