In-arena entertainer Josh 'Porkchop' Garrick told WMBD This Morning about the event. He defined his job of 'in-arena entertainer' as 'basically I get to host one of the biggest parties in the United States every single Saturday night.'
BBB is not a traditional 'rodeo.' It's several rodeo events cherry-picked to deliver the most excitement.
'We took what we feel like are the three most exciting western sporting events, the Bull Riding, the Freestyle Bull Fighting and the Barrel Racing, and merged them with two awesome country concerts, Conner Smith and Kameron Marlowe,' he said.
There'll be a live DJ providing music.
Bulls Bands & Barrels rolls into Peoria Civic Center Saturday, March 22, and tickets start at $33.
Doors open at 5 p.m.
