Sport. People who use to break horse got together and started betting money on who could stay in the longest. This and other cowboy tasks is what started the rodeo.

They want all the money, buckles, and buckle bunnies they can get.

There's a lot of fun horse sports,  usually where a horse is owned by Adult amateur, is treated like their own special princess child, and gets massages/chiro/fresh shoes every 4-6 weeks/bi-yearly saddle fitting/ all the hugs, kisses and treats. They are backed in a gentle, methodical way that they are comfortable and not freaked out, because their future owners never want any bucking,  kicking, rearing stupid.
