Justin McBride Closes in on $5 Million in Career Earnings!!!

By PBR

Two-time and reigning PBR World Champion Justin McBride (Elk City, Okla.) has made history by recording several records throughout his 11-year career---32 career event wins, the most money earned in a single season ($1,835,321), and eight single season event wins among many others. At this weekend’s Built Ford Tough Series presented by Wrangler (BFTS) stop, the U.S. Border Patrol Invitational presented by Cooper Tires in Grand Rapids, Mich., history could be made yet again. McBride sits at $4,998,799.54, just $1,200.46 shy of becoming not only the PBR All-Time Money Earner, a record he already holds, but the richest cowboy in history with $5 million in career earnings.

The only thing that could stand in McBride’s way is his past history in Grand Rapids. Although he won the event title in 2001, injuries have plagued him in the city ever since. In 2003, he left the Great Lake State with broken ribs and a punctured lung. The following year, the Grand Rapids stop left McBride with a broken ankle and in 2007 a bull bucked him off and left him with an injured neck. The 2008 Grand Rapids stop will hopefully play out better for the reigning World Champ. Not only will McBride have two, possibly three rounds of competition, to try and earn the $1,200, he will also have the Grudge Match to compete in where the prize money up for grabs is $15,000.

Though he sat out for seven months recovering from shoulder surgery, McBride returned to competition in June like a man on a mission. So far in four events, he has won two event titles---the first coming in Tulsa, Okla., at the Express Classic presented by Creek Nation Casino and the second at the last BFTS stop, the Jack Daniel’s Invitational in Nashville, Tenn. In 2008, he has earned $95,472, recorded three 90+ point rides, and ridden 8 of his last 11 bulls including Voodoo Child (Beutler & Son Rodeo Company), a bull with a 100% buck-off rate until McBride met up with him.

Make sure to tune-in to VERSUS on Saturday, September 13 at 8 p.m. EST and FOX on Sunday, September 14 (local times will vary) for the U.S. Border Patrol Invitational presented by Cooper Tires and see if McBride can become the richest cowboy in history!!
