RFD-TV The American Rodeo 2020 Live Stream
FloSports, the innovator in live digital sports and original content,
today announced an exclusive partnership with RFD-TV’s The AMERICAN to
live stream the Semi-Finals and Finals. Known as The World’s Richest
One-Day Rodeo, the top rodeo competitors from around the world compete
for $2,500,000.
In its fifth year, The AMERICAN has
become one of the most anticipated and competitive events in rodeo.
Attracting thousands of professional, amateur, and youth athletes,
competitors can qualify for the event three different ways, by
invitation, offered exemptions, and paid entries to qualifying events
throughout the year sanctioned by Better Barrel Races, Professional Bull
Riders, and Ultimate Calf Roping.
This year, The AMERICAN contestants
will compete for huge cash prizes. Each event will pay $100,000 for
first place and $25,000 for second place. In addition, if a qualifying
athlete can win his or her event, they will be entitled to a share of a
$1,000,000 side pot.
“From world-renowned athletes to
rising stars and fan favorites, The AMERICAN spotlights the best of the
best in rodeo,” FloSports SVP Global Rights Acquisition and Subscription
Phil Wendler said. “Our partnership with RFD-TV’s The American allows us to
provide expanded, in-depth coverage, along with worldwide distribution,
designed to elevate the weeklong event, including ‘The World’s Richest
One-Day Rodeo.’”
“RFD-TV’s The American, presented by
Dish has grown by leaps and bounds in its first four years, and year 5
promises to be the best yet,” said Billy Frey, Chief Marketing Officer.
“Those that can’t make it to AT&T Stadium or Cowtown Coliseum can
watch or listen to all the action on RFD-TV, The Cowboy Channel, RURAL
RADIO on SiriusXM Channel 147 and now FloRodeo.com and we couldn’t be
more proud.”
