What to Expect

Buckin’ in the Ozarks brings professional bull riders to town for a weekend of PBR action, known in the sport as The Toughest Sport on Dirt. You’ll watch riders take on bulls under the lights at Parsons Stadium, with the crowd right there for every ride and every near miss.

Where It All Began

The PBR got its start in 1992, when 20 bull riders came together with a vision of building a sport for future generations. They believed their passion for the sport, along with their honesty and hard work, deserved to be rewarded with a hard day’s wage. That vision has grown into an international circuit, and Rodeo of the Ozarks is proud to host one of its Challenger Series stops again this year.

Grab your boots and your people. This one’s worth the trip out.
