UNFORTUNATELY, THE OKLAHOMA STATE PRISON RODEO WILL NOT BE HELD IN 2011.

The broncs and bulls fly high — but the inmates fly higher. And that's all just part of the fun at the annual Oklahoma Prison Rodeo, billed as the world's only rodeo held completely behind prison walls. The annual event has been going on at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary in McAlester, Okla., practically every year since 1940, though it was skipped several times a few decades ago. The date is something new this year. It's the first time since its inception the rodeo isn't being held during the Labor Day weekend. Secondly, one of the biggest changes this year is the addition of teams from the state's two female prison institutions. More than two dozen women from the Mabel Bassett and Eddie Warrior correctional centers are training to compete against their male counterparts. They'll be riding broncs and bulls, racing wild horse, double mugging, bull poker - just like the guys. Altogether, about 140 inmates will be ready to participate in the rodeo. Not everyone will, since some are alternates for their team. The alternates have to be ready to go on a moment's notice in case a teammate can't participate — whether due to injury or a bad case of nerves.

Professional rodeo cowboys and cowgirls also perform during the rodeo, but there's been a change in that this year as well. This is the first time the International Professional Rodeo Association will have its members doing the roping, steer wrestling and barrel racing events. Gates open at 6pm, rodeo begins at 8pm Content furnished by Doug Russell, news editor for the McAlester News-Capital, www.mcalesternews.com " style="max-width:75px; max-height:75px;" />
