This…
After the Finals, we usually reflect on team counts, payouts, and what happened in the arena. But the 2026 All Star Finals was different. It was unforgettable, but in the end, none of that is what we’ll carry forward.
We lost two members of our All Star family, who meant so much to all of us. It was a week of heartbreak, but also a reminder of the kindness and generosity that still exists in this world.
We were honored to meet a Make-A-Wish family at the Lazy E and send them home with an All Star Finals saddle in memory of Jamie and Tucker Earp, made possible by the generosity of one of our ropers.
This week changed our perspective. The numbers don’t matter. The runs don’t matter. What matters are the people, the memories, and the time we get to share together.
To our staff and families—thank you. We couldn’t have made it through without you.
