Las Vegas - Bull Riding

Our last night in Vegas we attended the Bull Riding finals at the South Point Casino. It is the only one with a Sports Ring. It takes place on alternate sides for better viewing. Here the superbly trained horse chases the bull into the stalls.
When the action was on the other side you could still see it clearly on the video monitors in the center. The rides were also replayed there.

There were fireworks before the show.

The horse is after the bull yet again.

Here the bull is chasing one of the clowns.

The rider had to stay on for 8 seconds for it to count.

The bulls look pretty gentle here.

One of the riders hurt his head quite badly but rode again later.
