In Phoenix for PBR (Pro Bull Riders), like a rodeo except only bulls are ridden. The action, high-speed and only half the cowboys rode those rank bulls for 8 seconds.

I snagged a free “ go-down-on-the-dirt pass that got me up close with a few of the riders.

Here I am with Cody Nance, fresh off his second win of the season. Folks, he’s #3 in the standings. Nice as can be and darn cute.

Tonight, the finals.
