LeDoux heads to the Hall Of Fame

Six new cowboys will become members of the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The 'Class of 2005' includes some of the most well-known cowboys outside of the arena as well as some real legends within the sport.

The six new members are:

• Chris LeDoux
• Slim Pickens
• Jimmie Cooper
• Joe Marvel
• Charles Maggini
• Marvin Brookman

For more information on these inductees, read the Full Story from the ESPN/ProRodeo website.

I'm glad to see that LeDoux has finally made it to the Hall of Fame. It's too bad that Chris's induction has to come after his untimely death. Ledoux, Pickens and maybe Ben Johnson are some of the most recognizable rodeo cowboys outside of the sport, due to successful career transitions after rodeo.
