There is one very difficult section of the sport in particular that comes along with being a cowboy, bull riding. While risking one’s own health, a cowboy is to mount a bull and ride it for eight full seconds; all while being graded by judges and receiving fifty points from the bull’s performance and fifty points from his own performance.

One aspect of The Ride that young college students, with little knowledge of the bull riding sport, would enjoy is the relatable personal stories.
