  • Attention Randy Bernard~CEO of PBR and Ty Murray~PBR President
    OPEN LETTER TO RESIDENTS of OKLAHOMA Dear Professional Bull Riders, Inc. (PBR): Attention Randy Bernard~CEO of PBR and Ty Murray~PBR President I am writing to urge you to eliminate the presence of ALL tobacco sponsors and messages during your bull riding events. Professional bull riding has moved into ranks of world-class sports and the eyes of the public are now fixed on the PBR athletes, who serve as heroes and role models for youth across the United States. Simply put, children emulate the actions of adults they admire, copying their habits-both good and bad. I have been involved with the sport of bull riding for over 20 years as an announcer, broadcast and print journalist, radio personality, spectator and, most recently, as a spokesperson for Buck Tobacco Sponsorship’s National Tobacco-Free Rodeo Project. The Buck Tobacco program targets rodeos and bull riding events throughout the country with requests to eliminate tobacco sponsorship. (www.bucktobacco.org). I have visited with over 150,000 children across the country to talk with them about the sport of bull riding, along with the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle. Tobacco is not part of a healthy lifestyle and should not be part of bull riding. Numerous churches, schools and community organizations across the country are joining me in the pledge to support a tobacco-free PBR. Many of these individuals regularly attend PBR events with their children, and are disturbed by the tobacco messaging that is reaching kids at your otherwise family-friendly event. Would you encourage or allow your child to use tobacco products? Medical research chronicles the increased likelihood of heart disease and cancer as a result of the use of tobacco products.

    Communication from Public Name: Colleen Smith Date Submitted: 05/11/2021 11:21 AM Council File No: 20-1575 Comments for Public Posting: I would hope that banning certain devices used in rodeo would be the least of your concern. Given the absolutely abhorrent conditions that are currently plaguing your city and entire state, your efforts should be attempting to figure out your homeless problem!! Communication from Public Name: Date Submitted: 05/17/2021 01:38 PM Council File No: 20-1575 Comments for Public Posting: Please Do NOT Ban Rodeo and Bull Riding in Los Angeles! This ordinance is unnecessary – PBR already takes great care of the bulls!! - The health and safety of the animals in bull riding is paramount. These animal athletes get the best care and live a great life – extending four to five times as long as the average bull. - PBR stock contractors make their living by breeding, training, and working with their animal athletes. They truly love these animal athletes, treat them as a member of their own family, and have many safeguards in place to ensure their care. - The bulls in PBR are not wild animals forced to compete – they’re bred and trained for their jobs. Bulls buck because of their genetics. They are not abused or coerced to compete. The flank straps and dull spurs used in PBR do NOT harm the bulls. - In addition to bringing millions of dollars of economic impact to LA, bull riding teaches important values like hard work, charity, respect, responsibility, and honesty. The sport is inclusive and promotes equality.

A and treatment of PBR Bulls is a top priority to those portion of PBR’s Animal Welfare Policy summarizes the who govern and/or participate in PBR events. great respect that everyone associated with the organization shares for our animal athletes: Since 2006 in Australia, there have been approximately 13,000 “outs” (bull ride attempts) at Welfare and Treatment of PBR’s Animal Athletes Policy: approximately 260 events across all of the series Professional Bull Riding is fully committed to ensuring operated by or sanctioned by Professional Bull Riders the much-deserved health, safety, and respect of Australia for an average of 50 outs per event. WWW.PBRAUSTRALIA.COM.AU BULL INJURIES There are approximately 60 bulls at a one-day event, 90 bulls at a two-day event and 110 bulls at a three-day event. A bull bucks only one time per day and no more than two times at a typical event. One bull will suffer a minor injury (muscle pull, scratch) every eight events or 400 outs. Bulls that are determined to have an injury are not allowed to compete again until fully recovered, which is generally one to four weeks.

(December 2008) Natasha Elizabeth Romero, B.S., Texas A&M University Co-Chairs of Advisory Committee: Dr. Andy D. Herring Dr. Theodore Friend Video and industry data were used to assess the inter-relationships of aggression, delivery, coat color, year of birth, number of outs, buckoff percent and score in rodeo bulls. An evaluation of laterality based on observations of how the individual animals were loaded into chutes at 11 bull riding events showed 63% left-handed delivery and 37% right-handed delivery across all observations (n = 525). There was a similar distribution for aggressiveness (based on whether or not the bull charged after the rider dismounted) with 64% of bulls being non-aggressive and 36% of bulls being aggressive. Significant linear relationships existed between score and number of outs and score and buckoff percentage indicating that experience impacted performance.

There are no timeouts. No four-corners offense. No taking a knee. No towels to throw in. There is only one cowboy, one bull and 8 desperate seconds. In 1992, 20 cowboys broke from the rodeo and invested $1,000 each to pursue a dream of a standalone league dedicated to bull riding. In the 28 years since, the PBR has grown into a global phenomenon that has awarded more than $191 million in prize money. 20 FOUNDING MEMBERS OF THE PROFESSIONAL BULL RIDERS David Bailey Jr. Cody Custer Michael Gaffney Ty Murray Clint Branger Jerome Davis Tuff Hedeman Ted Nuce Mark Cain Bobby Delvecchio Cody Lambert Aaron Semas Adam Carrillo Mike Erikson Scott Mendes Jim Sharp Gilbert Carrillo David Fournier Daryl Mills Brent Thurman BULL RIDING BASICS THE PBR STORY Headquartered in Pueblo, Colo., PBR was created In May 2015, PBR was acquired by Endeavor, a in 1992 by a group of 20 visionary bull riders who global leader in sports, entertainment and fashion.
