Montana is set to celebrate its deep-rooted heritage with a new official state sport — American Rodeo. Once Governor Greg Gianforte signs House Bill 190, Montana will become the fourth state to honor its cultural traditions in this way, joining the ranks of Colorado’s pack burro racing and Alaska’s dog mushing. While the decision drew praise from many, some voiced concerns about the bill’s lack of acknowledgment of Native American contributions, particularly Indian Relay. Despite that, rodeo’s significance in Montana remains undeniable.
