I live my life 8-seconds at a time as an adrenaline junkie that goes event to event, matching up against some of the rankest bulls in the world in an 8-second battle for supremacy.
US Rodeo Supply in the US and Bramer's Rodeo and Western Supply in Canada. Both have online stores and great email support.

This season, they enacted a new system. The Top-35 after the World Finals were kept on tour for 5 events. The BFTS Standings are actually points from the BFTS, the TPD, and International Events, with points being rated differently from each event, ie. more points for winning a BFTS than a TPD, but all the points are one set of qualification standings. After the 5th event, the "cut" in essence happens the Tuesday before each BFTS Event. The top 35 in the BFTS Standings (all of PBR Event Points) are drawn for that weekend's event. It's a new system that is to allow guys to move up faster, as opposed to being on a streak in the TBD and having to wait 5 events to move up.

Good stuff!
It's a combination of practice, experience that will help there. Drop barrels are good as you'll always be pushing yourself to the front, but just stick with it, the "hard part" is over!

Help Desk Technician
Are people appreciative when you help them or do they just treat you like a support monkey?
Professional Bull Rider
Have you been seriously injured while bull-riding?
Rap Promoter / Manager
Do rappers ever stage beefs with each other as a PR stunt?
Yes, as long as the rodeo doesn't have qualifying requirements. Most don't.
Try and get some good direction on where to start competing in terms of quality stock, good calibre, with good bullfighters, etc.
Also try and find someplace with a practice pen nearby, etc.

The best way is to create a sponsorship package that gives something to the sponsors, not just "exposure" or "branding". Stuff like tickets to events, meet and greet at sponsors, and such. Going after sponsors is a tough game, you're competing against little league baseball teams and the olympics... you need to stand out and be original. Think Activation.
Best way to get out there? Big events, big results... and social media.

Thank you Mark for your great questions. I can only answer so far, but I would recommend you contact the PBR Media Relations Department and the Justin Sports Medicine Team for more detailed information if necessary.
