Matt Triplett, of Columbia Falls, Mont., goes for a wild ride on a bull named Freaktime Friday night during the PBR Touring Pro Division bullriding event at the Rodeo Arena in Hailey. Triplett had the high score through two rounds of riding in front of a packed house. Both the cowboys and stock were PBR-finals caliber and veterans. The event featured three rounds composed of a total of 35 rides, with the best 10 scores making it to the final fourth round. Out of the first two rounds, or 21 rides, six cowboys lasted the full eight seconds to earn a score. PBR spokesperson Judd Mortenson said “it was a big honor to come to that arena again, and it was exciting and our pleasure and we hope that we will be there again next year.” Photo by Willy Cook
