    BARRELMEN/ CLOWNS AND BULLFIGHTERS Keith Isley chocked up his fourth entertainment trifecta at the 2011 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, winning Clown of the Year, Coors Man in the Can (barrelman) and Specialty Act of the Year/ Comedy awards for the fourth time (2006, 2009-11); no one else has managed the feat even once. Photo by Eva Scofield 2011 Wrangler NFR Personnel Darrell Diefenbach – Bullfighter Darrell Diefenbach has put more on the line for the Wrangler NFR than many. He immigrated to the U.S. from Australia, where he rode bulls and broncs, fought bulls, read the ProRodeo Sports News and hankered to get his own PRCA member- ship. And he watched lots of NFR videos, telling himself after he got to America, “If I don’t make the Finals in five years, I’ll go home.” No worries, mate. Three years after coming to America, Diefenbach achieved his goal in 2001, and he’s been selected every year since then – 11 consecutive times. But due to the hazards of his chosen profession, he sat home in 2006 and 2008 with a broken neck and a broken leg, respectively … and that’s not all. “It broke my heart,” he said. “You go all year with that goal. To sit home is hard when you put as much into it as I do. “But when I’m there in the (Thomas & Mack) alley stretching, and I hear (announcer) Bob Tallman getting the crowd pumped up and cheering, just like on the old NFR tapes I used to watch, that gets my motor running.
