Chuck Wagon Racing has been considered a sport since 1923, and its origins can be traced farther back than that when Guy Weadick first invited ranchers to enter their chuck wagons to compete for $275 dollars in prize money. This equestrian rodeo event involves participants driving their chuck wagon led by horses around a track. The most famous of these races is held at the Calgary Stampede Rodeo in Alberta, Canada. The sport itself requires a heck of a lot of skill, and can sometimes be dangerous with the occasional injury of the driver or one of the horses. Like all races, the first to cross the finish line wins, but mistakes like a knocking over a barrel or wagons interfering with each other, will cause a time penalty, and can hurt your overall score. Although this sport is highly popular in areas of Canada, it has a long and standing history in American rodeo as well.
