Ten years ago, The Burke Stampede Rodeo Committee was lucky enough to land a rising star of rodeo…. Justin Rumford from Ponca City, Oklahoma as our rodeo funny man and entertainer. 9 time PRCA Clown of the Year and a set of triplets later, Rumford affectionately known as “Rump” will be returning to the Burke Stampede. We tried several times to get Justin back to the Stampede and this year, WE GOT HIM!!! The Stampede Committee is sooooo excited to bring Professional Rodeo and Professional Entertainment of this caliber to this year’s rodeo. After a trying year off, “Rump” is just what we need to bring the laughter and the party to the Burke Stampede.
