Professional Bull Riders BlueDef Tour

Sunday December 6, 2015 Doors Open: 4:30PM Start Time: 5:30PM

Get ready Cincinnati! The Professional Bull Riders announced that Cincinnati’s U.S. Bank Arena will be the host for the BlueDEF Tour event on Sunday, December 6.

For one night only, the best up and coming bull riders in the world will be battling the fiercest bovine athletes the sport has to offer, who weigh nearly 2,000 pounds each, more than 10 times their cowboy counterparts. The thrilling 8-second rides and heart-stopping wrecks are sure to leave fans on the edge of their seats in anticipation and excitement.

The bull riding action begins at 5:30 p.m. ET. Tickets, ranging in price from $15 to $75, go on sale Friday, September 25 to the general public and are available at the U.S. Bank Arena Box Office, online at www.ticketmaster.com, and by phone at 800-745-3000.

Each rider will face one bull in Round 1 and then the Top 10 scoring riders of the night will come back for one more ride in the championship round. At the end of the competition, the rider with the highest combined score will be crowned the champion.

Cincinnati will be the 4th stop on the 2016 BlueDEF Tour. The tour will make stops in cities such as Bakersfield, California; Wichita, Kansas; Portland, Oregon; and Omaha, Nebraska this year. The BlueDEF Tour Finals will take place two weeks prior to the PBR World Finals and offer a total purse of $100,000.

The overall winner of the BDT season will be the rider who earns the most world points at the BDT level. He will receive $50,000 and qualify to compete at the PBR Built Ford Tough World Finals.
