The rich history of rodeo and the sport it has evolved into along with the even richer history of Pecos have provided the impetus for the creation of The Texas Rodeo Hall of Fame by a group of dedicated individuals striving to preserve that history with the realization that history is more than events Its the people. The Texas Rodeo Hall of Fame honors those who have reached the pinnacle of their sport and served as worthy ambassadors to further the sport and sportsmanship of rodeo with emphasis on those who have competed in The West of the Pecos Rodeo here in Pecos Texas. The new and permanent home for the Texas Rodeo Hall of Fame is in the Old TP Depot at Dot Stafford St. and Oak Street.
