Any PBR fans here?
 

Last summer when I was glued to the TV watching the Tour de France on OLN, I would occassionally see part of the PBR (Professional Bull Riders) competition. It got addicting after a while. It's really a tough individual sport. It seems to be gaining a following generally, and I was just wondering if anyone else here is a fan.

I like it. I don't go scanning ESPN or the other sat. channels to find it on, but I'll watch it over damn near anything else when I find it on.

I was eating dinner at a TGI Fridays one night and it was on the TV directly in front of me. I sat there eating and watching for about an hour and a half--an hour longer than I normally would have been there.

Pabst Blue Ribbon?
In a pinch....

PBR, ugh! I watched a bull riding thing once, and I don't think those guys make much money for what they do. National champions make less than 100k/year in winnings as I recall.

If I catch it on TV I watch.

Those guys are serious athletes, as opposed to the overpaid crybabies you see in every other sport.

Last year's world champ, Justin McBride, made over a mil I believe. Like I said, the sport is rapidly growing in popularity, and the cash is increasing... I agree with you though, I'm not sure any amout of money would entice me to risk my life on the back of one of those beasts.
