Mutton Busting at the Angelina Benefit Rodeo

The rodeo will feature crowd favorites like bull riding, barrel racing, a calf scramble, and many more. But, the mutton-busting competition always brings out some of the loudest cheers from the spectators.

Every night of the rodeo, 12 young cowboys and cowgirls aim for the nightly championship trophy by staying on the back of a sheep as it races into the arena.
