Spotlight: Bull Riding Events Yee-Hah!
Professional bull riding is a fierce, rough, and grueling sport with roots deeply imbedded into North American culture. It’s the original extreme sport. The event has evolved into a captivating and adrenaline charged sporting event that features an all star cast of the greatest bull riders and bucking bulls in the world.
Professional Bull Riders touts itself as “The Toughest Sport on Dirt”. Without a doubt, bull riding is the most exciting event in rodeo. Be there up close & in person to witness Justin McBride, Adriano Moraes, Chris Shivers, Mike Lee & the rest of your favorite PBR superstars as they compete for the Pro Bull Riders championship. From the Built Ford Tough Series regular season to the PBR World Finals in Las Vegas, we have you covered.
Every December, the National Finals Rodeo brings rodeo’s brightest stars to the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. Grab your jeans, cowboy hat, and enthusiasm and witness rodeo action at its best!
The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo takes place in Houston at Reliant Stadium each March. The rodeo events are sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association and the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association, and all Houston Rodeo participants are members of the ProRodeo or the WPRA. The Houston Rodeo is ranked as the world’s largest rodeo, with over 1 million spectators each year.
And in something unique to the Houston Rodeo, every day’s rodeo events are followed by a concert featuring some of the biggest names in country, rock, hip hop and latin music. When the rodeo events are completed a stage is moved to the center of the ring and rotates to provide all seats with a clear view of the artists.
To truly experience the magic of the rodeo, you need to get off your couch and head down to a live event where you can see the bulls and the riders up close!
For all you followers of the sport, I have a very short video for you to check out — http://www.ahamoment.com/vote/jeremy — about the “aha moment” of one pro with a passion for rodeo. I think you’ll enjoy it. If you do, click to vote for him and his story might be used as an aha moment TV commercial. Would be nice to see rodeo get a little more national exposure. This round of voting ends Oct. 15, so vote early and often and spread the word.
