		<description><![CDATA[ Purple Cowboy Rides Into Las Vegas
Wrangler National Finals Rodeo

Tonight&amp;#39;s a very big night for cowboys and girls: it&amp;#39;s opening night of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. Our very own Purple Cowboy wines will be poured at a variety of events as the rodeo world&amp;rsquo;s biggest competition. The action plays out over the next two weeks (Dec. 1-10), culminating in the crowning of the world&amp;rsquo;s top professional cowboys and cowgirls. 
We&amp;#39;re proud that Purple Cowboy is the official wine of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association and major sponsor of Tough Enough To Wear Pink, the western community&amp;rsquo;s grassroots breast cancer organization. But maybe you&amp;rsquo;re wondering how that all came about and how Purple Cowboy wines came to be. Cowboys? Wine? Gotta be a story behind that. And there is.

		<description><![CDATA[ Breast Cancer Awareness
Tough Enough to Wear Pink?
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and pink ribbons are everywhere. Our favorite breast cancer charity, the Wrangler Tough Enough To Wear Pink campaign, has launched a new way to wear your pink ribbon of support--on your social media profile pic! It&amp;#39;s called a &amp;quot;twibbon&amp;quot;. Get yours here and share with your family and friends on FB and Twitter.
In 2004, Wrangler Western Wear helped launch the Tough Enough to Wear Pink campaign to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research and to support western community families coping with the disease. Since its inception, TETWP has raised more than $9.75 million across the U.S. and Canada through rodeo fundraising events, proceeds from Wrangler TETWP merchandise and support from Purple Cowboy wines, the official wine sponsor of Tough Enough To Wear Pink and the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. Wrangler started the twibbon campaign to spread the word about TETWP ... ]]></description>
