The 2023 Professional Bull Riding (PBR) Team Series champions have added three signature events to this year’s lineup — and they’re all in Texas. “Ride for Texas” — the team’s latest initiative — paves the way for PBR athletes to compete at an elite level and provides Texas fans more opportunities to experience the thrill.
“Ride for Texas” will serve as the foundation for the Rattlers’ 2026 season, as two of the major events lead up to the team’s annual homestand at Dickies Arena in October.
Plus, the Texas Rattlers have a kids’ club so there are even more opportunities for the family to get in on the excitement. Miniature PBR fans can enjoy gifts, exclusive discount codes, monthly emails from Fang the mascot + more.
