Slack:   Definition of rodeo slack is an over flow of contestants in a performance.  Slack is held only if the performances fill.   If you plan on entering the slack, it will open 2 hours after the books open at all rodeos this summer.  Performances must fill before slack can even make.  To fill performances, entries from slack will be drawn for performances and it will be the responsibility of the contestant to make sure where you draw: performance or slack.
