We can’t all be champions. In the rodeo business, as in every competitive sport, there are a select few who become truly great. Just as inevitably, there will be the many who make up the group from which these champions arise. From the scared kid riding his first steer, to the crippled old saddle-bronc rider who is going to try it just one more season, each individual secretly believes himself capable of developing into one of the “greats.” Without this belief there would be no competition. I consider myself a charter member of these forever hopefuls who doggedly struggled in the shadows of the champions. During my rodeo years I had a few more disappointments than some, a great deal more fun than most, and never at any time doubted that I would eventually hold the title of World’s Champion Woman Bronc-Rider.
It seems I was the only person who was genuinely surprised when this failed to occur. — Jane Burnett Smith
