SISTERS, OR -- The Biggest Little Show in the World returned from its pandemic hiatus this week. Sisters Rodeo officials made the tough decision to cancel the show in both 2020 and 2021.

After such a long break, Rodeo announcer Curt Robinson wasn't sure fans would come back. He felt one of two scenarios would play out: "One, the anticipation builds. But on the other hand, when you go two years without having it, people might think, ‘Well, you know, we went to the lake last year. Maybe we should try that again this year.’ But that wasn’t the case." He tells KBND News, "The fans have been very supportive and very loyal to Sisters and I look for them to have great crowds all four performances."

Robinson says the cowboys are also thrilled to be back, "They know they’ve had great success here before and the money is good, a great chance to set themselves up with some momentum for the summer run."

PRCA-sanctioned performances start Friday at 7 p.m., with more on Saturday and Sunday. The Rodeo parade winds through downtown Sisters tomorrow morning, starting at 9:30. You'll find a complete rundown of events, visit the Sisters Rodeo website.
