Parrott calls Mamou, Louisiana, home with his beautiful wife, Lynette, and their new baby boy, Pacen Jude (born May 4).

FloRodeo: How many years have you been attending the Duvall's Annual Steer Wrestling Jackpot?
Rowdy: Five years

What all events have you won at the jackpot?
19 and Under, Champions of Champions, and Battle Royal

What is your favorite memory from the Duvall's?
That is a tough one. My favorite memory would have to be winning the Champions of Champions.

Describe what the Duvall family means to the steer wrestling world.
They mean a lot to the rodeo industry, especially in the steer wrestling. Many Duvalls have qualified for NFR steer wrestling and gone on to haze. They are some of the best out there. They put on one of the best jackpots in the world.

What horse will you be riding and who will be hazing?
I will be riding Timmy Sparing's horse, and Timmy will be hazing for me.

What do you plan to enter this year?
I am planning on entering the Champions of Champions and possibly the Battle Royal.

How has becoming a dad changed your rodeoing and entering?
I don't think it changes much, besides I have a lot more of a responsibility now. It also makes me want to win that much more.

What are your plans as far as rodeoing the rest of the year?
I plan on rodeoing the whole year. It has been going good and really hoping this is my year to make the WNFR.

Parrott would like to add he is blessed to be able to compete at the 39th Annual Duvall's Steer Wrestling Jackpot. He couldn't do it without his great family, awesome sponsors, and God.
