DIRECTOR’S CUT SCOTT KANIEWSKI

Fans are the reason for the 2020 NFR season W hen this edition of ProRodeo Sports News publishes on Oct. 30, we’ll be just 34 days away from probably the most improbable Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in ProRodeo history. attend anNFR if possible, the response was an overwhelming, “Yes.” The PRCA jumped into action, trying to find a locale that was willing to host and that would welcome fans with open arms. Globe Life Field (home of the Texas Rangers), the cities of

As other sports allow fans to trickle through their turnstiles, the PRCA had that plan all along. The biggest reason the 2020 Wrangler NFR will be not in Las Vegas but at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, is because the stadium can host an audience. When the first horse bucks on Dec. 3, a thunderous cheer will go up from thousands of voices in one of the nation’s newest stadiums. While the National League Championship Series and the World Series have hosted fans over the past several weeks, Major League Baseball didn’t announce the welcoming of fans until well after the PRCA had stated it was moving the Finals to Arlington and would have people (and DoppleWranglers) in the seats. If you read this space consistently, you’ll know that it’s been pointed out that the first rodeo back was Cave Creek, Ariz. Before any major sports returned, ProRodeo cowboys were back competing for cash. And soon after Cave Creek, cowboys were back competing in front of fans excited to see their favorite athletes back on the arena dirt. Since the coronavirus pandemic swept the world, the PRCA has worked diligently and within state and local guidelines to keep rodeo running. While plenty of rodeos had to cancel for the 2020 season because of the pandemic, many others worked within their state regulations to make sure their event would go off. When the PRCA sent out a survey to find out if fans would

Arlington and Fort Worth, and the state of Texas responded. Their answer – bring the Finals and everything that comes along with it to the Lone Star State. The cowboys have expressed their gratitude to all the rodeos that took place. They’ve been understanding of the rodeos that couldn’t happen. When they couldn’t rodeo, many ProRodeo athletes went out and found work to tide them over. But when rodeos started coming back, the cowboys responded. They flooded events. They entered anything and everything. They drove hours to get to one rodeo, then hours back the other way to get to another. The tales of cowboys competing at rodeos they had never previously been to are more commonplace than not. And that benefited everyone – cowboys, rodeos, gas stations and restaurants in between. But mostly it benefited fans – the ones who turned out in droves where they could, and ones who attended in smaller quantities when permitted. If there was a rodeo and fans could attend, they did. They shelled out their hard- earned money to show how much they wanted rodeo. That’s why the Finals will be in Arlington. For the cowboys, for the rodeo committees that fought the odds to make them happen, for the restaurants and hotels and gas stations the cowboys frequented while going down the road. But mostly the 2020Wrangler National Finals Rodeo will happen for the fans.

“I changed my outlook and mindset for this year, just go rope and have fun. I got a little flustered in the middle of the season and could hardly win anything. I really had to go back to basics.

COWBOY GRILLE WITH TRACY RENCK

How did you get your start in rodeo? Mike: I got on my first bareback horse at 22 at an amateur rodeo. I didn’t know a thing about it. I had a fast track and stuck with it. What’s it like being part of such a big family? Mike: I’m the oldest boy in the family and I have six older sisters. There are nine girls and four boys total. Being a big family, it is harder to get together as we get older, but there’s nothing better than the whole family being together. It’s good times, memories, and we make more memories. Why the late start in rodeo? Mike: I always wanted to be a cowboy, and I was working on a ranch at the time and rodeo always fascinated me. Everybody has heard Chris LeDoux songs going down the road and I wanted to try out rodeo. When I was 22, I thought there was no better time than now to start rodeoing. I rodeoed on my permit from 2017-19 and then bought my PRCA card. In 2019, you earned $18,293. What was that like? Mike: Last year was really good to me. I did well up north and I stuck to where I was good and making money. What was this COVID-19-marred 2020 season like for you finishing 38th in the 2020 PRCA | RAM World Standings? Mike Fred hasn’t followed the same career path as his siblings. He’s one of 13 children in his family, but the only one who rodeos. He also didn’t start competing until age 22. Now 28, Fred, of Wamego, Kan., has had a couple of decent seasons in bareback riding and has his eyes on qualifying for the 2021 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo.

MIKE FRED

Mike: This year has been tough because it was hit and miss with rodeos being canceled. This year I was trying to make the NFR, and I did well in Fort Worth, Texas, and San Antonio, but I ended up breaking my tailbone in Rapid City (S.D.) the first week of February. I still had a couple of more rodeos to hit and I didn’t want to miss San Antonio. I gritted it out, and after the rodeo in San Antonio I had surgery March 3 on my tailbone. I was out until June and then I separated my ribs in Cody, Wyo., and I was out again. Who has been the biggest influence in your rodeo career? Mike: A buddy of mine took me to (ProRodeo Hall of Fame bareback rider) Wayne Herman’s School in North Dakota. If it wasn’t for Wayne Herman teaching me, I would have never stuck with (bareback riding). I always call Wayne, and especially this year when I kept getting hurt. Wayne taught me a lot. What’s your favorite restaurant? Mike: Chick-fil-A. I always stick to the crispy chicken tenders. What do you do to stay in shape? Mike: I spar with this trainer (Jason Harp) of mine, and we train for MMA fighting. My first fight is supposed to be coming up in January in Topeka, Kan. I’m going to fight at 200 pounds. I’m excited for the fight because I’ve been training for a while, and Jason really helped me with my footwork and everything. I saw (former PRCA bareback rider) Kelly Wardell had a testimony about MMA fighting and I figured I would try it. It has really helped me be more aggressive in my riding and helped me with my hand-eye coordination. Who is your favorite UFC fighter? Mike: I have always been fascinated by Conor McGregor’s style, but I have been following Jorge Masvidal more so lately. What does 8 seconds feel like to you? Mike: The rush I get is close to sparring or fighting. You get hit and you just want to react. If you’re doing good and rolling, there’s no better feeling. When you’re not rodeoing what are you doing? Mike: I’m a trim carpenter. I have my own little business and I trim houses and build furniture. I have been doing carpentry for 12 years. With COVID-19 this year, I was able to advertise a little more and get my name out there so jobs will keep coming in if I can’t rodeo. What’s your favorite movie? Mike: Tombstone or Pearl Harbor . I like them both a lot.

What was the make of the first car you drove? Mike: It was a Dodge RAM half-ton 1976 pickup. Who is your favorite sports team? Mike: The Houston Astros. Do you have a favorite athlete?

Mike: I have always been fascinated with Tim Tebow. What would life be like for you without a GPS on your phone? Mike: Oh, my goodness. I don’t know how they did it back then. I would have a better sense of direction that’s for sure. I’ve never used a pay phone so that would be new to me as well. If I find a pay phone, I might use it just to say I’ve used a pay phone.
