A Truly Oklahoman Event




So I said I wanted to start doing something truly unique to Oklahoma every weekend and what better way to start it off than going to a bull riding show! We went to the PBR show in Oklahoma City last night and it was one of the funnest nights I've had. I absolutely loved everything about it...well other than the smell. I could have done without that. My friend Christie, who I will be moving to Chicago with, went with me and this was her very first time. I was actually quite surprised at how much I knew about bull riding! I have to give credit where credit is due though - my best girl friends from college gave me a lengthy tutorial this past Christmas when we watched the PBR Championship in Las Vegas.

Afterwards we went out and stumbled upon the same bar as all the riders so of course we had to stay and mingle! I mean wouldn't you? I'm a sucker for a guy that has manners and calls me sweetheart :) Before we knew it we were informing all of them of the importance of helmets. We didn't want them to get a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) and then need us to treat them. I know what you're thinking and yes, we are a blast to go out with! Well our little chat with them must have worked because the very next night a few of them were wearing helmets. Mission Accomplished!!!

Weekend 1: Bull Riding Competition
Outcome: Best. Night. Ever.
