William Pickett was a renowned American cowboy, rodeo performer, and a key figure in the development of the sport of bulldogging, which involves Wrestling cattle to the ground. Born on December 5, 1870, in Travis County, Texas, he was one of the first African American cowboys to gain fame in the rodeo circuit during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Pickett is also known for his unique style of catching cattle, which involved biting their lips, a technique he called "bulldogging." He became a member of the famous "101 Wild West Show" and helped break racial barriers in the rodeo world.
