The world's elite 45 bull riders risk life and limb each time they nod their heads and the chute gates open. These athletes are required to match wills with 2,000-pound opponents in the ultimate test of stamina and determination as they face the rankest bulls in competition today. Topping the list of competitors scheduled to attend the Heart of the West Ford Invitational is PBR World Champion and million dollar winner, Chris Shivers. Other riders scheduled to appear include Reno's own and top ranked rider, Tony Medes and powerhouse Justin McBride.
The PBR rocks into action at 8:00 p.m. on Friday, 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, and 2:00 p.m. on Sunday. The PBR promises an up-close and personal look at the only athletes qualified to play 'the toughest sport on dirt,' surrounded by hair-raising pyrotechnics, fireworks, and rock-n-roll excitement.
