The Bulls Show their Stuff at Tecumseh, NE!

The riders were tough but the bulls were
tougher! That was the story at the Annual Johnson County
Agricultural & Mechanical Association Bullriding in Tecumseh,
NE. Two men rode both their bulls while only one other man was able
to cover his long-go bull. Kolt Donnelson not only rode his bull in
both the long-go and the short-go but thrilled the crowd with a 91-point
ride in the short-go! Kolt finished the event with 176 points to win
$1543.50 and the 5th Annual Jerry Nolte Memorial Buckle. The
gorgeous Bob Berg Buckle was presented by White Buffalo Productions owned
by Todd Crase and Ryan Skillett in honor of the late Jerry Nolte of
Tecumseh. Jason Branham also rode both of his bulls but finished in
second with as score of 165.
One of the highlights of the night was when funnyman, Lance McLlvain, who
is also a champion bullfighter, gave an exposition of freestyle
bullfighting that thrilled the crowd and left the crowd on the edge of
their seats.
The outstanding bull selected as the Bull
of the Event was Buck Cherry who put Dusty Green to the ground in the
short-go. This was the second event in a row that Dusty has drawn
Buck Cherry in the short-go and the second time Buck Cherry has bucked him
off before the whistle. I am sure Dusty is looking for a re-match!
