American cowboy: the greatest icon in the world
The Professional Bull Riders event gets underway in
Billings on Friday night and continues through Sunday.
Now in its 25th year, this marks the TWENTY-FIFTH
time the PBR will be in Billings.
Sean Gleason, Chief Executive Officer of the PBR
since June 2015, was pondering the idea of cancelling
the show for 2020. And we have our Montana Legislature
to thank for it.
Here it is, straight from his Facebook page:
