The Sisters Rodeo earns its nickname

The Sisters Rodeo has earned a prominent spot in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association rankings.

According to rodeo president Glenn Miller, the Sisters rodeo ranked Number 52 out of 680 PRCA rodeos in the United States based on total prize money.

Sisters offered $124,436 last year.

The Sisters Rodeo is the fourth largest in Oregon, behind the Pendleton Roundup, the St. Paul Rodeo and the Hermiston Rodeo.

"That's why we're the 'Biggest Little Show in the World,'" Miller said.
