Seems simple to those of us that grew up on a ranch, but the Stampede is a huge event, with huge public exposure.
Things change over time. I can foresee a day when calf roping is banished as a side show event like steer roping. The first nail in the coffin was the name change. I don't think you will ever see it become illegal though (at least I hope not). Too slippery a slope on dictating how animals raised strictly for food are treated in relation to roping calves on ranches to be doctored.
