8m 4s
Carlee Otero knew she was headed to the NFR before she could spell it, right down to a kindergarten note about running barrels and singing the national anthem. She traces the road from three-day family jackpots in Northwest Oklahoma to filling her permit, finding a horse named Dillion, and making her first Finals in 2011 with her family along for the ride. "Every year that I make the NFR, I feel like we're all starting over with the exact same goal."
