Randy & Sydney Bracher | They story of Pendleton Roundup and the inaugural year of Pro Rodeo Breakaway on the grass | Let Er’ Buck
Randy Bracher has Pendleton, OR blood that runs 5 generations deep, and has passed down the sacred letter “T” for “Tradition” to his daughter, Sydney! We sit down today and talk about just how Pendleton Roundup became one of the most iconic rodeos to compete at as a breakaway roper!
Breakaway Roping at the Roundup started off as a circuit event qualifier for the columbia river pro rodeo women's breakaway roping circuit with the help of breakaway roping advocate Jennifer Casey! For 3 years Pendleton Roundup hosted the breakaway roping qualifier to a limited number of breakaway ropers, and then in 2021 they took the leap and added breakaway as a Pro Rodeo event, with equal money, and a chance for all of the women involved in Pro Rodeo Professional breakaway roping to run one off the hill on the grass!
Randy and Sydney share the special father-daughter bond, and share a little behind the scenes of what that is like in and out of the rodeo arena! Their bond runs deep, and the love of a father for his daughter and the future that is before her is something that will inspire all of our listeners!
