"The Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association didn't sanction Houston's rodeo this year, and Houston may decide it's big enough to keep standing alone."
But what do you consider a "sporting" event? I carried to Monster Jam. Is that a "sporting" event? What about professional wrestling?Teamless wrote:Professional in the most common meaning (and no, I am not here to say that the law uses what is common) is if a person gets paid for winning at a sport type event.
Just look at NCAA Rules, they are even more strict, a person cannot be paid in money or gifts or other tangible items in lieu of money for any sport type event.
Basketball players, once they get paid, lose NCAA eligibility, football, etc etc.
