there is no defense in nascar nor NHRA drag racing but they are professional sporting events

Professional ski racing, track & field, etc.

Personally, I am glad there is no defense when competing in skeet or trap shooting.

Wrong. The Pasadena Livestock Show and Rodeo is a PRCA (PROFESSIONAL Rodeo Cowboy Association) event. So, it IS a professional sporting event and thusly off limits.

Pasadena is not sported by the PRCA, there is no prize money awarded only trophy and points for world comp. the trophy is given by PLSR. I know this because my wife is on the livestock committee.

The Pasadena Rodeo is on the PRCA schedule. To me that strongly implies that it is a professional event?
