National Western Rodeo Underway For Immediate release Contact: Susan Kanode (817) 307-6336 18-year-old steals show at National Western Denver Chute-Out By Susan Kanode For the National Western Stock Show DENVER, Colo. (Jan. 16, 2013) --- There is little doubt that a future bull riding super star made his debut at this year’s Denver Chute-Out. Joseph McConnel, from Bloomfield, N.M., had the biggest win of his career at the Professional Bull Riders Touring Division Finale here on Wednesday night. McConnel was one of the most consistent bull riders at this year’s event with 86.5 point efforts in the first and semi-final rounds. He then came back in the finals and rode D&H Cattle Company’s bull Western Show for 89 points, the highest marked ride of the event. He had a total of 262 points earned the 18-year-old $23,656. Just six months ago, he was dominating the ranks of high school rodeo earning three major championships shortly after graduating. He was the New Mexico High School Rodeo Champion bull rider which earned him a trip to the National High School Finals where he was again crowned champion. He topped his high school career off with another championship at the International Youth Finals Rodeo. “I got off of my third bull and was just looking at the clock,” McConnel said. “When I saw that 8.00, I just about lost it. All of my bulls here were perfect. It’s a little unreal to win an event this big.” The money he won here is likely to move him up in the ranks of the PBR to the Built Ford Tough Series. McConnell started his career like many of today’s top stars riding sheep, then calves and steers. He is now headed to Pueblo, Colo., for the next PBR event and is hoping to add to his earnings. Finishing behind McConnel were three former world champions. In second was the 2004 world champion Mike Lee from Decatur, Texas. His total of 261 points earned him $16,464. Colorado’s Kody Lostroh, who was the 2009 world champion, earned the $8,871 for 255 points. In fourth place was the 2008 world title winner, Guilherme Marchi from Brazil. Competition in the Denver Coliseum continues on Thursday with the debut of Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association competition. The first performance of the rodeo starts at 7 p.m. DENVER, Colo., (Jan. 16, 2013) – The following are results from the Denver Chute-Out Professional Bull Riders Touring Pro Division Finale at the National Western Stock Show Rodeo.

  • Four-Legged, 1,600-Pound Athlete Looks to Continue His Historical Streak in Louisville This Weekend!
    Four-legged, 1,600-pound Athlete Looks to Continue His Historical Streak in Louisville This Weekend! Professional Bull Riders' (PBR) World Champion Bull Bushwacker Goes for 41st Consecutive Buckoff at Louisville, Kentucky’s KFC Yum! Center April 13-14 The Professional Bull Riders (PBR) stops in Louisville, Ky. this weekend at the KFC Yum! Center for the PBR Built Ford Tough Series Bass Pro Chute Out presented by Jack Daniels Saturday, April 13 and Sunday, April 14. During Sunday’s Built Ford Tough Championship Round , the bucking chute gate will open and two-time World Champion Bull Bushwacker of Julio Moreno Bucking Bulls will get a chance to extend his already historic streak of consecutive buckoffs. Having already shattered the previous record of 35 consecutive buckoffs, he is currently at 40 and odds indicate he will dump his 41st consecutive cowboy in Louisville. All of the action airs on CBS Sports Network Sunday, April 14 at 5 p.m. ET. Either way, history is going to be made this weekend; Bushwacker will continue his unprecedented success, or a cowboy will finally complete an 8-second ride atop this amazing animal athlete. Bushwacker has not been ridden successfully since 2009 and has maintained an impressive average buckoff time of 2.38 seconds. PBR fans know they are witnessing something special every time he sets hooves in an arena. This is bull riding’s equivalent of DiMaggio’s 56-game hitting streak, bringing excitement and anticipation each time this bovine bruiser gets into a chute. Amazingly, Bushwacker didn’t let arthroscopic surgery on his rear fetlocks (ankles) in January 2012 get in the way of his career, as he has returned to the sport better than ever.

  • SETTING RECORDS, CROWNING CHAMPS Kansas Bareback Rider Repeats Title; World Champion Barrel Racer Sets Arena Record
    For more information: Ruth Nicolaus (319) 321-2152 For Kansas’ Biggest Rodeo SETTING RECORDS, CROWNING CHAMPS Kansas bareback rider repeats title; world champion barrel racer sets arena record Phillipsburg, Kans. (August 7, 2021) – In the bareback riding, Kansas cowboy Jesse Pope won the Phillipsburg title for the second consecutive year. The 22-year-old cowboy rode Beutler and Son Rodeo’s Nutrena’s Election Day for 87.5 points and $2980. It was a full eight seconds, Pope said. “It felt like we were doing a lot of things. She’s a pretty small horse and really electric and she bucked hard. I had to sit on the gas pedal the whole time and wait for the buzzer.” A recent graduate of Missouri Valley College in Marshall, Mo., Pope is ranked seventh in the world standings after an outstanding summer. He sat out of rodeo for two months with a fractured L5 vertebrae that pinched a disk, but over the week preceding and following July 4, Cowboy Christmas, won $21,000, and in the month of July, won $50,000. Pope made a big impression at his first Wrangler National Finals Rodeo last year, finishing as the average champion and third place in the world. Last year’s National Finals was a jumping off point for this year. “A lot of people didn’t know me, going into the Finals last year. I was feeling really going into it, and won the average. I’ve been building off of that. I took it, built a fire with it, and I’ve been putting gas on the fire every time I get on.” He loves coming to Kansas Biggest Rodeo.

But over the next week or so, they’re not alone in seeking make-believe bragging rights or grabbing some real cash. Rodeo has gone fantasy. And in fact, the official online version of fantasy rodeo is celebrating its 10th anniversary at this year’s National Finals Rodeo, where there is plenty of cash on the line, along with the grand prize: a new Dodge Ram truck valued at $40,000. ProFantasyRodeo.com is the brainchild of steer wrestler K.C. Jones — who is competing in his seventh NFR at the Thomas & Mack Center — and business partner Jace Honey. There’s only one “game” in this fantasy league season, though — the NFR. “The National Finals is kind of the Super Bowl for cowboys, ranchers, rural communities,” Jones said. “And our Super Bowl is when you get to watch rodeo on TV. ” Jones said the league went to the Web after years of informal play. “Every year, we kind of had a group of buddies, and they’d pick teams — one K.M.

  • National Western Rodeo Underway
    Reigning World Champ Takes Lead at National Western By Susan Kanode For the National Western Stock Show DENVER, Colo. --- A near capacity crowd at the National Western Stock Show Rodeo got to see rodeo history on Monday afternoon. Trevor Brazile, from Decatur, Texas, made history in 2009 when he won his seventh world championship in the all-around category in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. Brazile is tied with Ty Murray for the most all-around titles in the association and surpassed Larry Mahan and Tom Ferguson with last year’s win. He is now working towards a record eighth championship and will stand alone as king of the cowboys when that happens, and if his performance here is any indication it could very well be in 2010. Brazile, who is also the reigning tie-down roping champion, took the lead in the first round of that event with a blazing 7.4-second run. Riding his great buckskin horse, Jaguar, he made a near perfect run that is the fastest seen in the Denver Coliseum in the past two years. Doug Pharr, from Victoria, Texas, also stopped the clock in 7.4 seconds in 2008. This was Brazile’s first of two appearances in tie-down roping. His second will be at the Tuesday matinee, beginning at 2 p.m. He competed in team roping on Sunday where he and Patrick Smith had a time of 5.3 seconds in the first round. That is currently in third place in the round. They failed to connect in the second round, so will be waiting to see if they remain among the top eight in the first round to get a share of the prize money.
