(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The Professional Bull Riders (PBR) and U.S. Space Force are teaming up for a celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, with a bull riding competition and concert featuring country music superstar Tim McGraw at the U.S. Air Force Academy’s (USAFA) Falcon Stadium.
PBR Space Cowboys on June 20 will feature 30 of the world’s top bull riders, divided into three teams of 10, each representing a distinct Space Force Operational unit. Riders chosen by team captains in a draft will match up against the rankest bucking bulls in high-intensity, 8-second matchups.
Tickets will go on sale to the general public Thursday, April 30 at noon MT and can be purchased here.
“We’re proud to partner with the United States Space Force for this historic America 250 event,” said Sean Gleason, CEO and Commissioner of PBR. “Cowboys helped tame America’s last physical frontier; today, Space Force Guardians stand watch over the frontier of space. Both bull riders and Guardians embody grit, discipline, and the drive to push beyond the known. This event celebrates that shared spirit – honoring American pride, spotlighting the technology that keeps our nation secure, and delivering an unforgettable night of patriotic entertainment.”…
