Pronounced LASS-soo, and also known as a lariat (both based on riata, the Spanish word for "rope"), this is a loop of rope designed as a restraint. You throw it around a target, pull on the rope, and presto! It's usually a stock tool in an American cowboy's arsenal. More sadistic lasso using characters might also engage in What a Drag. Compare Suffer the Slings and Instant Knots. Serves as a Sister Trope to Whip It Good, since some but not all cords are used for both lashing and lassoing. Compare Knows the Ropes.

The various versions of Wonder Girl have also sometimes used one. One early version was the same as Wonder Woman's lasso (forced to tell the truth, etc.), while Cassandra Sandsmark's lasso could fire the lightning of Zeus. | |

A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court: Hank uses a lasso to defeat eight knights in a tourney. Merlin steals it (claiming it was a magical artifact that disappeared after that many uses), so Hank faces his next opponent (and all the others after him) with his revolvers. | |

Lassos can be used in Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption 2 to capture someone before hogtying them. You can use this if you want to take someone alive or drag them behind your horse or even tying them to the train tracks. | |

Lucky Day from ¡Three Amigos! is good at this. In one scene he is shown to be trapping three banditos with one throw of his lasso. The announcers wonder aloud what the officials will call it, and it turns out to be a two-minute penalty on Dwayne for "roping". | |

Applejack from My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic tends to use her lasso a lot whenever the situation arises. Notably in the episode "Slice of Life", she manages to lasso the Bugbear, a hybrid monster way bigger than her, and brings it to the ground with one good pull. In the Superhero Episode "Power Ponies", Applejack as Mistress Mare-velous gets a magical lasso that responds to her mental commands. With it, she can perform physics-defying stunts such as tying up a tornado (Pecos Bill would be proud). |
