Bismarck, North Dakota – First, I would like to send my sincere gratitude to Lou Babiarz for his help in covering the 2012 PBR. Also, I would like to extend thanks to Chad and Sarah Berger for their cooperation in allowing me to bring a first to my readers. I would also like to send a big thank you to Chad Berger and Ben Jones for taking the time out of their busy schedules to answer some questions for me and bring you, my readers, the best coverage of the PBR.
The bulls had to be one of the toughest things to ride for people like Ben Jones, pictured on the right, who suffered two broken ribs on Friday night and nearly stole the show. On Saturday’s show, he scored 86 points and was leading until Austin Meier eventually passed him by with a higher score and won the belt buckle. It was a nice effort for the Australian but it came up just a little bit short. As for Poncho Limas, pictured on the left, Saturday night was not his night and he received a no score after being bucked off before 8 seconds. The most impressive cowboy on Saturday night was Oklahoma’s Austin Meier, who will return to the Peace Garden State to cowboy up and see if he can win a second belt buckle.
