Here are the results for Sunday, July 27, 2014 final rodeo.

When you were a kid, what was your first carnival dessert? Ice cream, churros, or funnel cake perhaps? I brought my family to the Championship Bull Riding final event at Cheyenne Frontier Days on Tuesday night. My girls got to experience two firsts in their lives that night: 1) bull riders, and 2) funnel cakes...

On Saturday night, Cheyenne Frontier Days rounded out the night shows with a final performance by Tim McGraw---but before he took the stage, they announced two big acts coming to the Daddy of 'Em All in 2015. Country crooners Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert will be two of the acts we anticipate seeing next year.

The Daddy of 'Em All took the night shows up a notch with a mix of nostalgia and cross-over country when Joan Jett and Kid Rock took the stage on Friday night.

They do more than just hold up your britches. Belt buckles are identifiers for cowboys--trophies, awards, symbols of pride and expertise. They're qualifications. And at the Daddy of 'Em All, each cowboy has something on display.

The best variety in western footwear was seen at Cheyenne Frontier Days this year. cowboy boots, moccasins, motorcycle boots...black, brown, pink, stitched, painted, fringed, and more.

So far, Cheyenne Frontier Days has had a star-studded line-up for the night shows: John Mellencamp. Lady Antebellum. Carlene Carter. Clay Walker. Championship Professional Bull Riders.

Tuesday night, as the final day of the Championship Professional Bull Riding came to a close, Elsie and Clyde Frost walked into the middle of the arena with the World Champion belt buckle in hand. They then presented it to Sage Kimzey, the 2014 Champion. The crowd erupted in roars.

It's pretty hard to walk through the Old Frontier Town at Cheyenne Frontier Days and not notice a man in period attire--complete with gun, wool vest, and square cowboy mustache. The man living the early 21st century was Doug Gumm, gunslinger extraordinare and all-around firearm enthusiast.

Imagine yourself sitting in the stands at the Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo events. The crowd is cheering as a cowboy, riding a prized stock, is launched out of the chute. 8 seconds later, you're on the edge of your seat waiting for the announcer to belt out the cowboy name, followed by the result.
