Fort Worth, Texas (February 11, 2012) ~ El Paso, Texas has some of the best CBR fans in the world! A sold-out crowd was witness to a thrilling evening of bull riding and a Houston cowboy claiming his second El Paso Champion title in a row! Craig Jackson is experiencing an outstanding week. He just released his new rap album BTB Vol I and tonight he gets two exceptional bull rides and a high dollar check.

Jackson was first up on the Loutelle bull team bull, Chief, for an 86.5 ride, which landed him fourth going into the short go. Next up he drew JC Knapp’s bull, Corpus Red and finished off the night with a 91.5 ride.

“This is just what I came in here wanting to do,” said Jackson after the show. “What a great place to ride. The El Paso fans were really behind me and it was such a great feeling.”

The JC Knapp bull, Corpus Red, Jackson’s short round bull, was awarded Bull of Event and also shared high marked ride honors with Buckle Man, a bull owned by Owen Washburn.

Fittingly, JC Knapp also takes home the Palace Station Million Dollar Bull Team event win for El Paso.

Henry Rifles honored Command Sergeant Major Arthur A Conners III, from Fort Bliss, Texas as an American Hero during tonight’s performance. Sergeant Major Conners has been serving in the US Army for over 24 years and currently resides in the El Paso area with his wife Angel.
