K-State cancels rodeo because of lack of facility availability
MANHATTAN Kansas State University’s Department of Animal Sciences and Industry canceled the 2021 K-State rodeo scheduled for mid-February.
Due to K-State, Riley County and Manhattan city restrictions tied to COVID-19, the department and K-State Rodeo Club are not able to host the rodeo in Weber Arena.
“We had planned to move the rodeo to Domer Arena in Topeka,” said K-State Rodeo Club coach Casy Winn in a release. “Then in December, Domer Arena became part of hospital overflow and the facility canceled all events.”
Winn and the K-State Rodeo Club looked at other indoor facilities in Kansas but eliminated them all.
