Our Story
A Handshake, A Horse, And A Promise.
Outlaw Rodeo Company was built on the belief that the best rodeos feel like family. Fifteen years later, that's still the standard we set.
Founder
Travis Presley
Owner & Producer
Travis grew up in the arena. Long before he ever produced his first event, he was helping his daddy work chutes at county rodeos across Georgia. He rode bulls on the professional circuit, performed as a rodeo clown and barrelman, and even shared the spotlight with his famous trick horse, Sparky.
In 1989 he started with little more than a truck and 9 sets of mobile bleachers. That grit evolved into Outlaw Rodeo Company, now producing over 20 high-octane events every year — still run by the Presley family, still built on the same handshake values.
