PBR was good
by BM01 on 8/2/09Germain Arena - EsteroThe only complaint I have is: They never did say at the end of the event who the overall winner was.

PBR: Professional Bull Riders on Tour
For a rodeo rider, trying to master a feisty horse is tough enough, a task not to be taken lightly, but bearing down on a big bull increases the scariness quotient considerably. That's one of the things that makes watching a pro bull rider so compelling — it's thrilling and frightening in equal measure as you marvel at the riders' skills while praying that they make it out unscathed.
These days, when it comes to bull riding, it's all about PBR: Professional Bull Riders. The organization started back in 1992 as a grassroots effort spearheaded by a handful of riders with a vision for what the sport could offer to fans. PBR grew by leaps and bounds over the decades, and by the 2010s they were sponsoring three major tours every year, adding up to hundreds of events with millions of dollars in prizes being awarded annually.
Needless to say, attending a PBR event means watching the best bull riders in the business strutting their stuff. Over the years, champs like J.B. Mauney, Kody Lostroh, Justin McBride, Adriano Moraes, Chris Shivers, and Tuff Hedeman have all distinguished themselves as decorated heroes of the PBR, giving all the rest a high standard to which they could aspire. And each of their tours offer fans the opportunity to catch some bull riding history in the making, be it the Unleash the Beast Series that ends with the PBR World Finals in Las Vegas, The Velocity Tour that showcases the rising stars of the PBR, or the Touring Pro Division split into Western, Central, and Eastern regions.
Whichever PBR competition you end up catching, there's one common thread. You're guaranteed to see some world-class athletes reaching deep inside themselves to tap into the best of their talents and give rodeo lovers an unforgettable experience.
Rating: 4 out of 5 Rating: 2 out of 5 PBR@AT&T Center
by robsa on 8/2/09AT&T Center - San AntonioIf your going for the bull riding just stay at home and watch in on TV. Out of over 2 hours of show time the bull riding last only about 20 minutes. The rest of time was made up of the clown dancing, TV time outs, the clown shooting t-shirts into the seats, girls drawing names for some unknown prize, etc....... Then there is the Versus pretend, highly promted, over excited audience that the Versus announcers have surrounding them while they bable on about the bull riders. SAVE YOUR MONEY and watch it on TV at home.
Rating: 3 out of 5 Well . . .
by Jacquelin on 8/1/09Germain Arena - EsteroThe arena is terrific, the riders & the personnel worked hard, but . . . there was no visual scoring available, and neither our neighbors nor we could understand any rider's name. With the announcing less than average and the echoing sound system bouncing the announcer's voice off all the walls, none of it was intelligible. If you aren't going to have a visual scoring display, then the announcing had better be first rate. As far as the riding and the bulls: everyone did their jobs and it was really fun and entertaining to watch.

Rating: 4 out of 5 Bullriding was great!
by cowgirlpat on 8/1/09Germain Arena - EsteroWe had a great time at the Bullriding event at Germain Arena. I would make a slight change, however, to lower the music so you could actually hear the announcer and the clowns talking. Otherwise, a great time. Can't wait for the next one!

by CAPP on 8/1/09Germain Arena - EsteroTHE BULLRIDING WAS GREAT, HOWEVER, THE SOUND SYSTEM WAS AWFUL. YOU COULD NOT HEAR THE RIDERS' NAMES BEING ANNOUNCED OR HEAR THE 8 MINUTE BUZZER.

by MacMan on 7/13/09Credit Union Centre - SaskatoonThe performances by both the bull riders and the bike riders were good. The commentary was not always as high a calibre as the performances.
