Elizabeth Stampede Xtreme Bulls- First Responder Night

Bull riding has its roots in the 16th century but its popularity has soared in the last 20 years. Cowboys match their riding skills, intuition, and courage against animals weighing 15 times more than they do. Eight seconds is all it takes to get on the scoreboard. But that’s not all. The score is determined by judges who evaluate the both the rider and the bull. At the end of the rodeo season, the top riders compete for the tour championship. Only a handful of the hundreds of PRCA rodeos qualify to host an Xtreme Bulls competition. Watch this premier even live at the Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo on Friday night.
