Oldest Rodeo in United States Returns This May

Did you know the oldest rodeo in the United States isn’t out west at all, but rather in New Jersey? Cowtown Rodeo in Pilesgrove, New Jersey, started back in 1929 by Howard “Stoney” Harris Jr. and his father. The event became so popular, it eventually moved to a 4,000-seat arena in 1967, and now fifth-generation owners Katy and RJ Griscom keep the cowboy spirit alive with bucking broncs, fearless bull riders and barrel-racing. In fact, today’s bucking horses descended from legends of the 1970s.
