Ty Murray’s Celebrity Bull Riding on CMT
No, there’s not a typo in my headline. It is suppose to say Celebrity Bull Riding. I saw some clips of this show on tv the other day and I have to be honest here, I’m just not sure about this.
I wil give it a try though and watch it. It’s been a long time since I’ve gone to a rodeo. I believe I have a friend who’s a rodeo performer. (aka rodeo clown, DO NOT call them that anymore. You’ll get yourself into a heap of trouble.)
Here’s a little bit about the show and what celebrities have stepped up to the plate, er bull:
The nine courageous guys who are stepping up to take on the challenge are musician Vanilla Ice, actor Stephen Baldwin, actor/musician Leif Garrett, actor Dan “Nitro” Clark, actor Francesco Quinn, former football star “Rocket” Ismail, Ultimate Fighter Josh Haynes, X-Games motorcycle legend “Cowboy” Kenny Bartram and Survivor reality star Jon “Jonny Fairplay” Dalton.
These celebrities will quickly move from mechanical bull to riding some of the biggest, meanest animals from the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) tour. If the celebrities can conquer their fear, avoid injuries and get a passing grade from Murray, at the end of their training they’ll ride in front of a packed auditorium at a PBR event in Nashville. The celebrities will even get a chance to pick their poison, choosing which legendary bull they’ll ride in the finale. It’s the ultimate man versus beast showdown.
The celebrities will get instruction and advice from Murray, legendary cowboy Cody Lambert and some of the greatest riders from the PBR tour.
How much would you like to see Vanilla Ice ride a bull? Here’s a video I found on YouTube. It’s not the best, but really people, there’s not that much to see. Let’s just say his singing career lasted a whole heck of a lot longer. “Ice, ice baby.”
