Introduction:
This isn’t just another rodeo—it’s where George Strait brought his cowboy heart into the arena he truly loved. More than 40 years ago, he turned his passion for team roping into something real: an annual competition that honors skill, camaraderie, and tradition.
Every March in San Antonio, the Rose Palace transforms into a dirt-stomached battleground where teams—from seasoned pros to weekend riders—compete for prizes like trucks, trailers, and fierce pride.
What makes this event special isn’t just the roping—it’s that George and his family are behind it, year after year. They select the steers, set the stage, and keep the spirit alive with hands-on care and cowboy grit.
When winners cross the line, it’s about more than speed; it’s about respect, tradition, and seeing your hard work pay off. That glimmer in a roper’s eye as they ride home with their trophy says it all.
