chance to compete in the Jack Daniels World Championship Invitational Barbecue Contest. This BBQ Contest will be judged by our City Mayors from Washington, Iron, and Kane Counties.
Each PBR event features the top 45 PBR riders who put their bodies to the test and they battle to determine just who the ultimate bull rider is. Riders try to stay on a bucking bull for eight seconds, and riders are judged on their performance as well as how the bull performs.
Western Festival PBR Riding
If a rider selects a tougher bull to ride, then that decisions will be taken into account by the judges. After the first round, the 15 riders with the highest points total square off for a second round, called the “short go,” and after all round are complete the rider with the highest point total wins that PBR Competition.
