The Texas Prison Rodeo was held from 1931-1986 in Huntsville, Texas. Inmates had the opportunity to compete in rodeo events and get paid for doing so. The event brought in around 100,000 spectators at its peak. All the photos I show are by Bill Kennedy, a wonderful photographer based in Austin! I have one of his prints from his Texas Prison Rodeo series. #texashistory #rodeo #texas #texascheck #huntsville #texasprisonrodeo #funfacts #bullriding
