The Prairie Circuit Finals Rodeo that was scheduled to begin Nov. 20th in Mulvane, has been canceled due to reported cases of equine herpes. According to a statement released by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association and the Women’s Pro Rodeo Association, they made the decision based on confirmed cases of equine herpes virus in the region.
The virus doesn't pose a risk to humans, but it can lead to neurological issues in horses. Refunds for the event are available online through Ticketmaster or the Kansas Star Arena box office, depending on where tickets were purchased.
