- RODEO
- Oct 30(Fri) - Nov 1(Sun), Nov 5(Thu) - 8(Sun)
- 2009 PBR Built Ford Tough World Finals
- Bull Riding Finals by PBR (Professional Bull Riders, Inc).
PBR produces events that feature only bull riding and are devoid of the other traditional rodeo events. Unlike the PRCA which is a non-profit organization, the PBR is an incorporated entity. The organization was formed when 20 of the top bull riders in the world at the time led by Tuff Hedeman, dissatisfied with the amount of prize money being awarded to bull riders in return for the high level of danger they endure, contributed a thousand dollars each to form an organization that produced only bull riding events. With a tour comprised of over 30 cities and their own major corporate sponsors, the PBR has succeeded in making superstars out of bull riders and awarding prize money in amounts yet unheard of in the sport of rodeo or bull riding. Formed in 1992, the PBR achieved a level of success which would see it equal to the PRCA in both size and popularity in a mere four years (the PRCA was formed in 1952). Since the organization specializes in bull riding, naturally the level of both riders and the bulls they ride is much higher in the PBR than it is in the PRCA and as such, for bull riders today, it is more difficult to become the world champion in the PBR than it is in the PRCA, not to mention the fact that the PBR title carries more clout.- WHEN: Oct 30(Fri) - Nov 1(Sun), Nov 5(Thu) - 8(Sun)

With attendance in the tens of thousands, it is a central event for the Western world in Japan. There are no fixed seatings at the event with sitting or standing on the grass being the only means of enjoying the concerts, so getting in early and grabbing a good spot is essential. There are various booths nearby selling food and merchandise, and even an area where you can enjoy the music while having a nice Bar-B-Q. Gates open at 12, but most begin lining up before 9:00am in order to secure the best seating.
