County Sheriff's Salinas Rodeo
County Sheriff's Salinas Rodeo
The annual Monterey County Sheriff's Rodeo in Salinas, California brings out the best of the bronco-busting, bull-riding set. For a finale, the mad bareback riders stampede, and the field is full of wild broncos and scrambling riders! Every third week in July, cowboys and fans attend the traditional rodeo competitions, bull riding and other rodeo related events that are held. High Angle Shot - The rodeo stadium is packed with police officers and rodeo fans. MS - First gate opens and a cowboy comes out on a bucking bronco. The ride does not last too long before the cowboy is picking himself up off the ground. MS - Another cowboy, another bronco and another fall. MS - Fans in the stands enjoying the show. MS - It's bull riding time, and this bull is ornery and the cowboy is thrown off the bull's back. Medium CUS - Another bull comes out of the gate, but this bull has a very determined cowboy sitting on his back. He is determined to stay on the bull, but the bull is just as determined to get the cowboy off his back. In time, the bull shakes him off. Medium Wide Shot - They open the gates to a lot of cowboys riding bucking broncos.
