Don Johnson Ram CBR Bulls on the Border Bull Bash set for this weekend LOS FRESNOS, Texas – Sept. 9, 2013 – Bull riding action is coming to the Los Fresnos Rodeo Grounds on Saturday night as Championship Bull Riding (CBR) brings a premier event on their tour to town. New to the CBR, the event will be a cross-cultural blend of bull riding and music. Gates open at 6 p.m. with bull riding action starting at 7:30. Following the bull riding will be a concert featuring Country up-and-comer Brett Eldredge and Mexican Tejano sensation Siggno. Competitors from Mexico and Brazil will join Americans hoping to win a championship. Expected to be among those competitors are current CBR world champion Cole Echols from Frierson, La., and world standings leader Aaron Pass, from Kaufman, Texas. The bull riding will follow the CBR’s very popular tournament style of competition. The first round will feature 24 of the brightest stars. Making it to the eight-second mark and getting a good score is the goal of every bull rider, but it’s critical for these riders who are attempting to advance to the next bracket in the tournament. The semi-finals will see 12 riders trying to be among the top four who compete in the finals where a big bonus will be paid to the Bulls on the Border Champion. Along the way, riders are accumulating points in the CBR World Standings. The Bulls on the Border is the second event on the Road to Cheyenne Tour, so winning here will give the champion an early leg up in the standings and momentum for the rest of the season, which concludes next July at Cheyenne (Wyo.) Frontier Days where the world champion will be determined. Tickets for the CBR Bulls on the Border Bull Bash go on sale Aug. 19 and can be purchased at dirtroadtickets. There is a variety of ticketing options available starting with reserved seats at $25. Fans will want to come early and join riders at the Kick Off Party at Winks Saloon on Friday the 13th featuring Texas Music artists Mill Row live at 9 p.m. More information is at winkssaloon.
