CFR Is 36 And Going Strong
It seems like it was just yesterday when CFR began, but it was actually 36 years ago. The Canadian Finals Rodeo started in 1974, and was originally hosted in the Edmonton Gardens. In 1975 CFR moved to the Coliseum, which is now known as Rexall Place.
The National Championship With Top Prize Money
CFR is a world-class rodeo event that consistently sets new attendance records while attracting the best contestants and stock in the land. Purses for this national championship rodeo have grown over the years, and total prize money for the 2009 edition of CFR will exceed $1 million.
