NFL Legend Junior Seau joined PBR's Dickies Durabullfighters in the arena on Saturday Night for the Built Ford Tough Series event in Ontario. In case you missed his bullfighting debut on VERSUS (or Sports Center!) he got run over pretty good on Friday night but bounced back up and was ready to go again with nothing more than a face full of dirt to show for his close encounter. Shared PBR veteran bullfighter Shorty Gorham,"We only had about five minutes to actually practice before the event. But after a section he told us he understood our 'plays' and was ready to go in. Now that guy is tough!" |

As one of only a few girls raising bucking stock in “Cowboy Capital” Stephenville, Texas, bucking the naysayers is sometimes tougher than bucking the bulls.

It's been a rapid ride into the final chapter of arguably the most page turning season in ABBI Classic history. With each passing event, stand-outs seem more competent and a new-comer or two cracks into the top 15.
There're only 44 Classic qualifier spots, including Wild Card Qualifiers, up for grabs this year since the rider number was cut to the top 40 bull riders for the World Finals. With 5 less positions available, it looks like the fight is fixin' to get downright furious. |

Most industry insiders understand why having some "Heat in that Meat" is important. When it comes to breeding and raising superstar buckers, let’s face it, duds and hand-lickers don’t generally go on to be electric and rank. Sure, there are exceptions like Red Rock and Little Yellow Jacket who were gentle later in their lives, but for the most part, big-leaguers don’t start out that way.

July 15 (Pueblo, Colo.)-- Applications for the 2009 Mikel J. Moreno Scholarship Award are now being accepted by the ABBI (American Bucking Bull Inc.). The annual award was started by Cindy Rosser Moreno and Julio Moreno to honor the memory of their late son, Mikel Moreno. Mikel was a successful bucking bull breeder before losing his battle with leukemia at age 18. The scholarship was started to help a young person with their goal of going to college, a dream our son wasn't able to see come true for his own life, explained Cindy Rosser Moreno. This will be the third year the scholarship has been awarded. Past recipients include Jonathan Chandler and Bryn Agnew. |
