Professional bull riders are back in town! The PBR Canada Elite Cup Series is set to take place at London's Canada Life Place on Friday and Saturday, both at 7 p.m.
'This show just keeps growing,' said Peter Gebraad, PBR Canada Cup Series manager.
'London has been showing us for the last couple of years that there are big bull riding fans, so we've doubled it up. We're here for two nights. We've brough an enhanced production package, bigger screens, bigger pyro, bigger everything.'
Gebraad said the event takes around 750 tonnes of dirt for the arena and seven football field lengths worth of steel.
'That's all handbombed. There's no mechanical advantage there,' said Gebraad.
'We are so excited. We heard last night that the London Knights team voted unanimously to attend our event on Friday night, so we have a few things up our sleeves to help acknowledge their great accomplishment last weekend, Memorial Cup champs.'
More information on the event is available here.
