We may have celebrated the International Lineman's Rodeo virtually last year, but we are looking forward to seeing linemen and their families this year for the 2021 Rodeo Week.
To get you pumped up for the Rodeo, here are some of our favorite photos from past competitions and the stories behind them. If you have a competition photo that you would like for us to share in this photo gallery or a future story in Lineman's Rodeo News, please email it to Field Editor Amy Fischbach.
Also, if you plan to be at the Rodeo this year, be sure to swing by the T&D World/Utility Products table and say hello to our team. We look forward to seeing you!
