I hate to bum everyone out but the bull riding is on real bulls and only open to professional bull riders!
Does Billy Bob's Have A Mechanical Bull?
Contrary to what many people think we Do Not have a Mechanical Bull.
We prefer to have the "Real Thing" with our Live Bull Riding performances held every Friday & Saturday nights at 9 & 10 p.m. Admission is $2.50
Can Anybody Ride a "Real" Live Bull At Billy Bob's Texas?
NO! Bull riding is a dangerous sport. Competitors at Billy Bob's must be Pro or Semi-Pro athletes and carry a valid riders card from a recognized Bull Riders sanctioning organization such as your state PRCA, PBR, or other institution.
Bulls generally weigh 1,800 - 2,000 pounds (a real ton) compared to the weight of most bull riders at 150 pounds. Because of this, there are NO "Have a Few Beers & Ride A Bull" Whims at Billy Bob's Texas.
