Tequila Don Modesto Rodeo

May 25th, 2010 / No Comments >> Tequila Don Modesto News

Rodeo is a sport which arose out of the working practices of cattle herding in Spain, Mexico, and later the United States, Canada, South America and Australia. It was based on the skills required of the working vaqueros and later, cowboys, in what today is the western United States, western Canada, and northern Mexico. Today it is a sporting event that consists of events designed to test the skill and speed of those who participate.

Professional rodeos generally comprises the following events: tie-down roping, team roping, steer wrestling, saddle bronc riding, bareback bronc riding, bull riding and barrel racing. The events are divided into two basic categories: the rough stock events and the timed events. Early rodeo-like affairs of the 1820s and 1830s were informal events in the western United States and northern Mexico with cowboys and vaqueros testing their work skills against one another.

Modesto Того Anaya (a.k.a) Don Modesto was part of this mexican tradition since the 1950′s, passing on his love for the sport to his family, just as he has passed on the unique and age old tequila recipe.
