About 40 of the world's best bull riders will be in Pueblo thursday for the Big-R Enterprise PBR Tour.
Crews at the State Fairgrounds are getting ready for the 11th annual bull riding event.
They've dumped more than one thousand tons of dirt into the arena. They're expecting a sellout crowd of 5-thousand including a lot of rodeo fans from our surrounding states.
"So I mean it does bring people to town and it's just a phenomenal event. Now that the (PBR) headquarters is here on the Riverwalk, it just makes it a little more sweeter, you know?" said Tommy Giodone, the event's promoter.
It starts at 7:30 Thursday and tickets range from 13 to 41 dollars.
