A season on the bull-riding circuit

Josh Peter’s account follows the Professional Bull Riders tour over the course of a year, placing the brief, high-stakes rides within the wider world that surrounds them. The book introduces the people involved in the circuit—from riders and scouts to breeders and devoted fans—and includes the bulls themselves as part of its portrait of rodeo culture. Its subject is both the contest, where a ride is measured in seconds, and the community built around the sport.

Book overview

In Fried Twinkies, Buckle Bunnies, & Bull Riders, award-winning sports journalist Josh Peter takes readers along on the Professional Bull Riders tour to witness the death-defying confrontation between man and beast that has made bull riding the fastest growing sport in the world. Success in this sport is measured in seconds-staying on a bull for 8 seconds without getting tossed is likely to secure the rider a big score. Josh Peter captures the high drama of the sport and introduces readers to a culture that's rife with colorful characters: courageous riders, scouts, breeders, love-struck groupies, and a few of those very angry bulls.
