For as little as $20, fans will see two and a half hours of full-throttle action - PBR style - with the world’s top 45 bull riding athletes riding one bull each night. On Saturday, fans will be treated to a bonus round when the top 15 scoring athletes will return in the Built Ford Tough Championship Round to determine the event champion. The man with the highest total score on three bulls will be declared the winner.

Topping the list of competitors are two-time PBR World Champions Chris Shivers (Jonesville, La.) (2000 and 2003) and Justin McBride (Elk City, Okla.) (2005 and 2007).  The two champs will ride alongside legendary three-time PBR World Champion Adriano Moraes (Cachoeira Paulista, Sao Paulo, BZ) (1994, 2001 and 2006) in this two-day man vs. beast competition. Moraes announced earlier this year that 2008 will be his last season riding bulls; therefore, this is Glendale's last chance to see the most decorated bull rider in PBR history in action.
