The Wrangler National Finals
Rodeo (WNFR) is one of the largest and most revered annual rodeos in the
country. And once again, Boyd Gaming
will be bringing the biggest names in rodeo and entertainment to its Las Vegas Valley
For the fifth year, the
award-winning National Finals Tonight® program will be presented in the Gold
Coast Hotel and Casino’s showroom. The program will run nightly beginning at 10:30 p.m. (6:30 p.m. on December 4) during WNFR. Admission is free and open to the public.
National Finals Tonight® is a
post-show wrap-up of each day's rodeo events, featuring rodeo highlights and
interviews with some of the most recognizable names in the world of
professional rodeo. Eight-time World Champion and Hall of Fame Cowboy Don Gay,
along with World Champion Tie-Down Roper and All-Around Cowboy Joe Beaver and
TV personality Dan Miller, will host the program.
Scheduled special appearances
include legendary rodeo announcers Bob Tallman and Boyd Polhamus. The world’s
top cowboys and cowgirls will also stop by for interviews and audience Q &
A sessions.
Attendees will also be
eligible for nightly free drawings, including autographed Fender guitars from
various country artists, including country music legend George Strait, obtained
through the courtesy of Wrangler. One guitar will be given away during each of
the 10 nights of the show.
For the second year, Gold
Coast will also host World Champion Bull Rider Gary Leffew’s Legendary Buck’n
Ball. This free nightly rodeo after party will be held in the Arizona Ballroom
