PBR

Professional Bull Riders is the leading major league sports franchise for bull riding in the world. The Professional Bull Riders was founded in 1992 by 20 accomplished bull riders who joined together and took a business risk to try make bull riding – the most popular event in traditional rodeo – into a stand-alone sport. Each rider chipped in $1,000 to help launch his dream of someday seeing bull riders recognized as mainstream professional athletes. The PBR is headquartered in Colorado, and has over 1,200 bull riders competing in more than 300 PBR sanctioned competitions in the United States, Australia, Brazil, Canada, and Mexico. PBR currently operates two domestic leagues, including the Built Ford Tough Series at the major league level, the Touring Pro for the minor leagues, and has a rapidly growing presence in international markets, including Brazil, Mexico, Australia and Canada.  For more information, please visit PBR at www.pbr.com or connect with us on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
