The stands were packed at the Stetson Bowl for Sunday afternoon鈥檚 rodeo, with more than 5,000 spectators in the stadium.
Today's crowd at much larger than it was Friday night. Do cowboys & cowgirls get stage fright?

The performance, featuring the second round of Pool B contestants, was a study in rough dismounts, reshuffling the deck of competitors for Monday鈥檚 finals.
Many athletes were at the top of their game. Ladies barrel racing saw an amazing run by Becky Fuson, from Conrad, Montana, with a 15.918-second finish. Heath DeMoss, from Heflin, Louisiana, took top place in saddle bronc riding for the second day in a row, coming in with 87 points. Not quite the 91-point performance the crowd saw the night before, but still a first place finish.
