Competition Heating Up at San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo[Feb. 21, 2009] SAN ANTONIO ---The Wild Card performance at the San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo was aptly named as contestants had one last chance to qualify for Saturday’s final round.

That gave him a total of $5,445 and he is now the second man in the race for the San Antonio championship. Whitfield has won this rodeo six times and hopes to make it a seventh.
