The 2008 Bob Feist Invitational Team Roping Classic (BFI) will be held Monday, June 23 at the Reno Livestock Events Center, Indoor Arena starting at 8am, in conjunction with the Reno Rodeo.
The 31st annual world’s richest one day OPEN team roping event will draw the best in the business — from contestants and sponsors, to fans of all ages! This year will be the second year that we have asked that the teams be sponsored. This turned out to be a popular move as last year we had over 77 percent of the ropers sponsored and that meant that they were roping for one of the largest team roping purses without putting up any of their own money. The sponsors on the other hand had the pride of sponsoring a team and got their name mentioned each time their team roped. See contestant list on page 42 of this issue, or on our website www.bobfeistinvitational.com.
The Silver Legacy is again the host hotel, offering outstanding accommodations, activities and fine dining. This year’s BFI reception will be held Sunday, June 22 at the Silver Legacy Grande Exposition Hall, doors opening at 5pm. Call the Silver Legacy and tell them you want in the BFI block for a special rate 1-800-687-8733.
