PUEBLO, Colo. ― Country superstar Jerrod Niemann is getting into the bucking bull business and becoming a stock contractor with Back Seat Buckers, the official bull ownership pro-gram of the Professional Bull Riders and ABBI (American Bucking Bull Inc.).

Niemann first hit the charts in 2010 with his major-label debut, "Judge Jerrod & The Hung Jury." It featured the Platinum-certified No. 1 smash "Lover, Lover,†as well as the Gold-certified hit, “What Do You Want.â€

Niemann will be selecting his bull alongside the other Back Seat Buckers owners on March 1 at AT&T Stadium, formerly known as Cowboys Stadium. Niemann recently shared a taste of his third and forthcoming album with the release of the feel-good, Top 20-and-climbing party-anthem single "Drink to That All Night.â€Â 

Over the last two seasons, Back Seat Buckers has attracted many celebrity owners who appreciate the turnkey ownership service that provides complete housing, feeding, training and hauling services for elite bucking bulls. John Elway, Wayne Gretzky, Reggie Jackson, Boomer Esiason and Chad Johnson (Ochocinco) have all participated in Back Seat Buckers.

Indy Car 500 Champion Tony Kanaan and New York Giants teammates Bear Pascoe and David Carr have also enjoyed the rush of owning a bull, as did UFC star Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone and country music staple Moe Bandy. Cerrone's bull finished in the Top 10 during the 2013 season and over $10,000 was donated to the Kevin Harvick Foundation on his behalf.

Niemann will also donate any money his bull wins to the charity of his choice, to be announced in early 2014. The winning Back Seat Buckers bull in 2014 will earn over $100,000.Â
