VEGAS NFR ICON :

TONIGHT

LIVING LEGEND TREVOR BRAZILE BECOMES THE FIRST NFR COMPETITOR IN HISTORY TO BE HONORED AS A VEGAS NFR ICON.

The award includes a banner in his honor being raised to the historic Thomas & Mack Center rafters during a special ceremony.

“It seems to me that this is like the ultimate hall of fame,” Brazile says. “There are things you do in your career and then there are things that you do in Vegas at the NFR. The NFR carries the same weight or more than all of the rodeos in the regular season combined. I've got a lot of great memories there and this banner will just help solidify those.”

EACH NIGHT, WE SPOTLIGHT HONOREES WHO HAVE GONE ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY IN DIFFERENT DISCIPLINES AND ARENAS.

EMPLOYEE SERVICE AWARDS

A strong team is the reason why the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo is so successful in front of and behind the scenes. Meet the best-of-the-best NFR team members during this special ceremony.

TREVOR BRAZILE - DEC. 1

Brazile was an easy choice to be rst to receive the award. Following him on Dec. 2 and Dec. 3 as Vegas NFR Icons will be Charmayne James and Ty Murray, respectively.

Brazile’s accolades and accomplishments are staggering

- 26 PRCA World Championships

- 31 National Finals Rodeo quali cations

- Career earnings of $7 million and counting, the only cowboy in history to eclipse that amount

- Induction into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in 2022

- Induction into the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame (2008) and the Texas Sports Hall of Fame (2016)

When Brazile reminisces about his Thomas & Mack Center experiences, his mind doesn’t immediately jump to the competition and winning the gold buckles and world titles. He ashes back to the rst time he galloped into the most famous rodeo arena of them all.

“It pays nothing, but riding through the grand entry for my rst time in 1998 is a great memory and probably one of the coolest ones,” Brazile says. “It's funny because I won a lot of stu there, but you only get to go in there one time as your rst time. That night, I was following a guy who is going up on one of those banners: Ty Murray was carrying the Texas ag that year.”

Brazile has always had an innate ability to rise to the occasion and he did so many times during his career. Two of his most compelling moments were authored on the Thomas & Mack Center dirt. Brazile earned his rst (2002) and last All-around (2018) world titles in “ride-o ” fashion with clutch nishes.

“For my last title, I had to nish second or better in the nal round to win it and I won the last round,” Brazile says. “That was my last all-around world title. I've won two steer roping world titles since then, but that was the last one in Vegas. It was really tting to go out that way because that was the exact scenario I had when I won my rst world title. It was really cool to end it like I started it.”

Now Brazile will get one more nod under the Vegas NFR spotlight.

“The energy from the fans in that venue is second to none,” Brazile says. “I know there has been renovations and improvements, but for a contestant, that yellow fence, the yellow bucking chutes and yellow timed-event chutes, those have never changed. There is a reason why people talk about the yellow arena. That is like the eld of dreams for cowboys.”

Fellow honoree Murray is all-in when it comes to Brazile’s banner being the rst to be hoisted to the rafters.

“I admire pretty much everything about Trevor and I think he is the greatest timed-hand that has ever lived,” Murray says. “I also think he is a great husband and a humble guy.”

In addition to the banner, the NFR Icon Award honorees are featured in a full slate of NFR events. They will appear at The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas, on The Cowboy Channel, and a special tribute lunch was held earlier today at the Virgin Hotels Las Vegas where the icons were interviewed by Butch Knowles and Je Medders.
