Angel Garcia Nunez went blind about two years ago after surviving a suicide attempt and has been wanting to compete in a rodeo. The rodeo in Sonoita was his first in Arizona and second overall.
TUCSON, AZ — As the announcer described him over the loudspeaker and the crowd roared, Angel Garcia Nunez patiently waited on his horse inside the bucking chutes at the Sonoita Fairgrounds.“I just get really hyped up and excited to climb in and ride in front of all these people,” Garcia Nunez said.
The techniques he used this long weekend at the Labor Day Rodeo in Sonoita were techniques he first learned at a three-day rodeo camp in Colorado. It was there that he went through a bucking clinic in May. His best friend Tone took his own life in late 2019. For Garcia Nunez, it was a tough time and he eventually turned to drinking.
