Slack events are events that do not fit into the normal rodeo hours in the afternoon. Slack rodeo events are open to the public at no charge and usually take place in the early to mid morning hours. Slack events include tie-down roping, team roping, steer roping, barrel racing, breakaway roping and steer wrestling.
