HOUSTON - A beautiful tribute to bucking horses has proven to be a popular addition to RodeoHouston each night, even bringing some rodeogoers to tears.
It starts with a single majestic horse named Hostage that runs riderless into the spotlight at NRG Stadium. Hostage is a 20-year-old retired bucking horse who won numerous rodeos throughout her storied career, including the National Finals Rodeo and RodeoHouston.
“She’s been bucking for 14 years,” owner Binion Cervi said.
Hostage is a great grandmother who gave birth to 11 babies.
Daughter, Hostage Negotiator, and granddaughter. Hostage Taker, gallop into the arena and stand beside their matriarch.
The audience breaks into cheers when two fillies follow: 2-month-old Painted Hostage; and 2-week-old Houston’s Honey. She was born during the rodeo. They are the great granddaughters of Hostage.
