<p>By Jeff Bressler</p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><span>Last week Biily, Melanie and myself had the opportunity to trek up to Ft. Worth to do a site visit to the Cowtown Coliseum at the Ft. Worth Stockyards, which will be the venue for the May 4 and 5 section of the Champions Tour. The Coliseum is one of America&#8217;s most treasured shrines to Rodeo and the West.<br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #000000;"><span>We are excited to use this arena for the Champions Tour and know that you will be equally enthused when you hear about some of the special amenities we have planned.</p>
<p></span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span><img src="http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa333/EGJG/dirt1.jpg" alt="Photobucket" width="271" height="179" align="left" /></span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span>First and foremost the Champions Tour will take place during the weekly Stockyards Championship Rodeo. If you have never seen a full blown old time rodeo in what you always envisioned a rodeo arena to look like this is your opportunity.</p>
<p>We </span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span>have secured a special VIP area for viewing that will feature food, a bar, private restrooms, and a panoramic view of the arena.</p>
<p>The Cowtown Coliseum was built in 1908 and holds a number of distinctive firsts -</p>
<p></span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span><img src="http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa333/EGJG/dirt3.jpg" alt="Photobucket" width="308" height="192" align="right" /></span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span>1908 &#8211; First Exhibition Round-up </span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span>of Cattle ever held under a roof in the United States.</span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><br />
</span><span style="color: #000000;"><span>1908 &#8211; First Night Horse Show in the United States<br />
1918 &#8211; World&#8217;s First Indoor Rodeo<br />
1923 &#8211; World&#8217;s First Live Radio Broadcast of a Rodeo<br />
1934 &#8211; Bull Riding Introduced to the world of Rodeo</p>
<p>Add to those historic firsts – the first ever Champions Tour in Ft. Worth and all the great eating and shopping at the historic Ft. Worth </span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span>Stockyards and you have a can&#8217;t miss event.</p>
<p></span><img class="alignleft" style="border-style: initial; border-color: initial; text-align: -webkit-center;" src="http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa333/EGJG/dirt2.jpg" alt="Photobucket" width="270" height="180" /><span>In the next few weeks we will give you the names of area hotels offering discounts, but why not stay on the internet now and make you air reservation for what will prove to be one of Exclusive Genetics most memorable events.<br />

<p>By Susan Kanode For the San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo</p>
<p>SAN ANTONIO, Texas &#8212; Ask bull rider Ardie Maier what his favorite rodeo is and he’s quick to answer, “San Antonio.”</p>
<p>The Timber Lake, S.D., resident has earned the title here the past two years and is in contention for a third. Maier finished second in the money leader category in the fourth bracket of competition with $3,439 and was among the competitors in the first semifinals in the AT&amp;T Center on Tuesday night</p>
<p>The bulls dominated the competition and Maier was the only one to be successful. He had a 77-point ride on Diamond S Rodeo’s Wind River to add $1,965 to his earnings. He now leads the money standings with $5,404 and is assured a spot in the finals on Saturday night.</p>
<p>He still has another bull to ride in the rodeo on Wednesday night and will be hoping to increase his advantage going into Saturday night’s final round. He also will be competing in Saturday afternoon’s Xtreme Bulls competition.</p>
<p>Maier qualified for the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in 2010 after winning this rodeo the first time. He was on his way to another qualification until he broke his back at a bull riding held in conjunction with Cheyenne Frontier Days last July. Then in the fall, he had a concussion and a shoulder strain.</p>
<p>He is healthy now and enjoying his chosen occupation. Semifinals1 continues here on Wednesday night starting at 7 p.m.</p>
<p>.</p>

<p>HOUSTON – Fans in Houston will be able to watch the Top 35 bull riders in the world and the toughest bulls on the planet on Saturday when the Professional Bull Riders bring the Built Ford Tough Series WinStar World Casino Invitational to Reliant Stadium.</p>
<p>Bull riding begins at 2 p.m. Each of the Top 35 riders in the world will ride in Round 1. Every rider with a qualified ride in Round 1 will advance to the Built Ford Tough Championship Round where they will compete with one more bull. The overall event winner will be the rider with the highest combined score from the two rounds.</p>
<p>Tickets begin at $15, and include admission to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo World’s Championship Bar-B-Que Contest and a concert by Roger Creager. Tickets can be purchased at <a href="http://www.ticketmaster.com/" target="_blank">www.Ticketmaster.com</a>, and by telephone at <a href="tel:%28800%29%20745-3000" target="_blank">(800) 745-3000</a>.</p>
<p>It is the first time since 2001 that the BFTS has visited Houston, and the only time that it has had the honor of being part of RODEOHOUSTON. Part of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, RODEOHOUSTON is the largest and richest rodeo in the world, scheduled to pay $2 million in 2012. It is also an attendance leader, with more than 1 million fans annually, including more than 1.2 million last year when the PBR sanctioned the bull riding.</p>
<p>Leading the way into Houston is Alvin, Texas, native Douglas Duncan, and top-ranked J.B. Mauney, who has earned almost $100,000 through the first seven events. The field will also include two-time PBR World Champion Chris Shivers, who scored 90 points in the championship round last Saturday to finish a quarter-point ahead of Mauney and win at Atlanta.</p>
<p>The bulls in Houston will include Asteroid, who has won the Pabst Blue Ribbon Bull Award for being the high-marked bull in two of the three events in which he has competed this season. The 2011 World Champion Bull runner-up has three of the top four bull scores in 2012, including the highest of the year, with 47.5 points out of a possible 50 at the PBR 15/15 Bucking Battle in Sacramento, Calif., in January.</p>
<p>The action will be televised in HD on NBC Sports Network, formerly Versus, at 9 p.m. ET Saturday, Feb. 25. There will be an encore airing at 11:59 p.m. ET Saturday as well. Veteran broadcaster Craig Hummer will provide the play-by-play. Color commentary will be provided by two-time PBR World Champion Justin McBride, and dirt-level interviews will be handled by Leah Garcia. BFTS telecasts are produced for the PBR by David Neal Productions, a Los Angeles-based production company led by 34-time Emmy® Award winner and Peabody Award winner David Neal, who serves as executive producer and creative lead.</p>
<p>Fans will be able to meet Dickies® DuraBullfighters Jesse Byrne, Shorty Gorham and Frank Newsom, and Dickies® bull riders Ryan Dirteater and Skeeter Kingsolver on Friday, Feb. 24, from 5-7 p.m. at Fiesta Mart, 4711 Airline Dr., Houston.</p>
<p>Five PBR personalities, including Brian “Pee Wee” Herman and Ross Coleman, will be signing autographs from 12-1 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 25, at Bass Pro Shops, 1000 Bass Pro Drive, Pearland, Texas. There will be free family-friendly activities from 10 a.m.-3 p.m., including stick-bull riding and bull roping as well as mechanical bull rides.</p>
<p>Houston is the second stop on a four-week stadium tour that began last Saturday in Atlanta, and will continue with visits to Arlington, Texas, on March 3 for the Dickies® Iron Cowboy III presented by WinStar World Casino at Cowboys Stadium, and Ford Field in Detroit on March 10.</p>
<p>The 2012 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo will run Feb. 28-Mar.18 at Reliant Park in Houston.</p>
<p>Houston is the eighth of 28 stops on the 2012 BFTS schedule, which opened on Jan. 6-8 with capacity crowds at Madison Square Garden in New York. The BFTS will make 28 stops in 23 states before the Built Ford Tough World Finals in Las Vegas on Oct. 24-28. The World Finals are where the PBR World Champion will be crowned and awarded the coveted championship buckle and a $1 million bonus. The richest bull riding event in the world, the World Finals has a total purse of more than $2 million.</p>

</a><a href="http://www.rodeoattitude.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Event-Photo-300x286.jpg" rel="lightbox[8564]"><img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-8577" style="margin: 15px;" title="Event-Photo-300x286" src="http://www.rodeoattitude.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Event-Photo-300x286-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>There’s nothing like good healthy competition to bring out a crowd!  And a crowd of bulls will be competing for big money, a gold buckle and bragging rights at the <a href="http://www.unitedbuckingbulls.com/events-results/ubbi-futurity" target="_blank">Bar B Arena Futurity-Derby-Classic </a>UBBI event on February 24<sup>th</sup>and 25<sup>th</sup>!  Eighty-One Futurity, Sixty-Six Derby and 59 Classic bulls will be competing in Mineral Wells at this year’s second regular season UBBI event.</p>
<p>“Wow. . . .that’s overwhelming to think that 200 plus bulls will be competing at this event,” stated Randy Schmutz, general manage of the UBBI.  “This is a new venue and I really believed that we would have a great turn-out, but this is above and beyond our expectations!  This says to me that the bucking bull industry is healthy and folks wanna compete.  I’m glad they’re choosing to participate at UBBI events!”</p>
<p>The weekend will begin with check-in on Thursday from 5pm to 8pm and continue on Friday from 9am to 3pm.  At 4pm, Billy and Angela Blue, owners of the Bar B Arena will start the fun with a BBQ Dinner and Calcutta at the arena.  The event will start at 7:30pm with the Derby on Friday night and continue with the Futurity on Saturday morning at 9:00am and finish with the Classic on Saturday night at 7:30pm.</p>
<p>“We’re really excited to continue to host the Don Gay Bull Riding Tour in 2012 and we have over 50 bull riders entered each night,” said Schmutz.  “These guys are riding for good money and “rank bull” rider bonuses each night.  The Tour also is proud of the fact that if you make the whistle you will win money!  This year’s Don Gay Bull Riding Tour Finals will once again feature $40,000 added money and the winner of the Tour Finals will drive away in a brand new pick-up truck!”</p>
<p>Bulls will be traveling to Mineral Wells from as far away as New Mexico, Missouri and North Carolina!  Let the games begin!</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">By Susan Kanode For the San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo</p>
<p>SAN ANTONIO, Texas &#8212; The San Antonio Stock Show Rodeo started in the AT&amp;T Center on Feb. 9 with the first bracket of competition.</p>
<p>On Monday night, the fifth bracket was completed and the field has been narrowed from 50 contestants in each event to 20. Those 20 have been divided into two groups of semi-finalists who will compete over the next four performances here.</p>
<p>One of the happy cowboys who will be trying for his second San Antonio title is Will Lowe, a three-time world champion bareback rider from Canyon, Texas. Lowe won the third round in the fifth bracket Monday with an 86-point ride on Kesler Rodeo’s Street Dance. That added $1,965 to his earnings and put him in a tie for first place with Casey Colletti from Pueblo, Colo. Each man has $3,930 going into the semi-finals.</p>
<p>Lowe will be among the competitors in the first group on Tuesday and Wednesday night. He earned the title here in 2007 and that has become a great rodeo memory for him. He and his wife just had their second child, a boy named Levi that joins his big brother Garrett. If Lowe wins a second buckle here, he would have one for each of his boys.</p>
<p>The big money winner in this bracket was Scott Kormos from Teague, Texas. Kormos won the first two rounds and topped it off with a second place finish in the third. He has total earnings of $5,403. He has a distinct advantage going into the semi-finals as the high-money winner in the tie-down roping. The closest competitor to him is Tuf Cooper who is nearly $2,000 behind with $3,438.</p>
<p>They will both be roping in the second semi-finals which starts on Thursday night.</p>
<p>Rodeo competition begins Tuesday night at 7 p.m.</p>

Produced by CMA’s reigning Male and Female Vocalist of the Year, Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert, and renowned guitar-slinger, Brent Rowan, this Blaster Records’ debut is McCoy’s 12th studio album. Already creating a buzz amongst top media outlets, McCoy’s upcoming television appearances include a satellite media tour in New York, and segments on “Hannity,” “Huckabee,”  “411 Live,” and “Better TV,” to name a few. Plus, McCoy returns to host GAC’s highly-rated, Top 50 Videos of the 2000s, debuting February 20, 2012.</p>
<p>“Neal is not only a friend of mine, but my hero,” commented Blake Shelton about working with McCoy on <em>XII</em>. “Our first priority with this album was that Neal only cut songs that he truly loved and was excited about. That was very important to us.” Miranda Lambert added, “It was a blast seeing Neal and Blake together…had the place laughing all the time. I think fans will hear three different artists coming together on this album with their individual takes on the music.”</p>
<p>Some of Nashville’s best writers—including Tom Douglas, Rivers Rutherford, Jamey Johnson, Allen Shamblin, Rhett Akins, and newcomers Luke Laird, Brett Eldredge, Geroge Terren and Barry Dean, came forward to contribute their very best songs. The end result from the ‘consummate live performer’ is a new collection that offers a little something for every listener. From the bouncy, bright, feel good single, “A-OK,” (featuring Lambert and Shelton on background vocals), to the infectious bar-room, toe-tapper, “Shotgun Rider,” to the engaging ballad, “Judge a Man by the Woman,” and classic, “Van Gogh,”   the project is chock full of good music.</p>
<p>“It’s like my shows, a little bit of everything that makes music special,” said McCoy. <em>“XII</em> has a little bit of church, a little bit of bar-room, a couple ballads that’ll encourage, and a real Texas thing about finding your groove in the midst of heartbreak with a cold beer and a good jukebox.” Blake and Miranda had definite ideas about what this should be – you almost couldn’t hold ‘em back.”</p>
<p>Recently listed as one of the Top 10 USO Tour Entertainers since the organization’s inception in 1941 (at number eight, between John Wayne and Marilyn Monroe), it has been 21 years since McCoy released his first single. Since that time,  he  has released 11 albums, had five #1 singles, over 25 charted singles, had a string of top ten radio hits, sold over 6 million albums all while completing over 15 USO tours and supporting the East Texas Angels Network, his charity for children with life-threatening illnesses.</p>
