His father, Neal Gay, was a well-known roo petor and roo producer. Don Gay was born on September 18, 1953, Mque, Texas, to Neal Gay and Evelyn "Cookie" Foster.

“Not only that, but beg gay slowly seems to be beg more acceptable for the younger generatns. So ’s a tch-22 kd of thg, where ’s great that gays beg roo is more okay, but ’s still the only place where women n nsistently ri rough stock.
Here’s why: In a sport tradnally domated by gged Marlboro men, the gay roo not only don’t discrimate agast women, but don’t discrimate agast men who are women or want to drs like women, or women who love women, or men who love men, or men who love women. “If not bee of beg gay, then bee of beg a woman. “It’s why so many of have gravated toward the gay roo, ” Duran says.

Thirty-two years ago, Denver beme the send cy the untry to host a gay roo (the first was held Reno 1976). The Colorado Gay Roo Associatn had formed 1981, but took two more years before anizers uld fd a venue willg to host “queers on steers, ” a jokey term that Duran and fellow petors on the gay-roo circu say they’ve heard plenty and don’t fd very funny. Another two years later, five stat wh gay roos — Colorado, Arizona, Texas, California and Oklahoma — found the Internatnal Gay Roo Associatn, wh the tentn of erng, sanctng and supportg state and regnal gay-roo efforts, as well as raisg funds for the Mcular Dystrophy Associatn, an effort that quickly changed s foc to the HIV/AIDS epimic.
The IGRA’s most proment objective, however, was and ntu to be providg a supportive and welg environment for everyone — gay, lbian, transgenr, bisexual or heterosexual — to pete all roo events. Gay roo featur all the events of the straight circu: the rough-stock events of bull ridg, steer ridg, steer wrtlg and bareback bronc ridg; the ropg events of lf ropg on foot, mounted breakaway ropg and team ropg; and the speed events, which clu barrel racg, pole bendg and flag racg.
But gay roo also has bon events, known as “mp, ” which clu wild drag racg, goat drsg and steer ratg. She and her boyiend have been gog to the gay roo outsi Goln for the past five years.

The bull and steer ridg are what get the people the crowd off their feet, and they’re also what many roo petors — gay or straight — fd most appealg, too, for both the adrenale sh and the enthiasm of the spectators. “ There’s nothg like bull ridg, ” says neteen-year-old Ksenia Bachka, who is straight, a rint of Arvada and a petor on the gay-roo circu.
Bachka won the world-champnship steer-ridg petn at the World Gay Roo Fals Las Vegas October 2015.
Gay-roo l, however, require only six sends to ver. A iend the Wternair peted gay roo, and when Bachka turned neteen and was old enough, she signed up, too. In 1981, the same year the Colorado Gay Roo started, the name was changed to reflect a more mature mdset; some of the rough events were also elimated, cludg bull ridg.
