When the NFR rolls into Las Vegas, the city becomes Cowboy Town—and ranch sorters are joining the spotlight. The inaugural Cowboy Town Showdown and Challenge of the Champions Invitational at the Plaza Hotel & Casino brought the sport to the heart of the action, with sorting by day and NFR celebrations by night.
Cinch RSNC and Horse&Rider Magazine are providing onsite social media coverage on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Tik Tok, and the livestream is on Ride TV.
