Lane Frost Challenge
PAYTON NELSON CLAIMS THE WIN AT 20th ANNIVERSARY LFC
VERNAL, Utah – The Lane Frost Challenge produced a historic 20th year anniversary event. As expert pyrotechnics lit up the arena, fifty of bull riding’s toughest riders looked on with anticipation. This was their chance to prove they had what it takes to win the coveted Lane Frost Challenge title. In the end, Utah natives reclaimed the podium, with Payton Nelson coming out the victor. Payton Nelson is no stranger to the Lane Frost Challenge. Nelson started the weekend with a score of 70.5. He was offered a re-ride Friday night, but declined. This talented rider went on to score an 80.5 and an 83-point ride on Rockin’ B All In Pro Rodeo’s bull, Rambo in the short round, bringing his final score to 234 points. When asked what advice he would give to new riders Nelson said, “Don’t get discouraged. Try hard. Keep going when it gets bad, no matter what, because it will pay off, if you work hard. Hard work will beat talent when talent is not willing to work.” Following his own advice, Nelson solidified his place as our 2020 LFC champion, taking home a hefty winning of $6,000. Second place winner, Hayes Weight, is a long-time competitor at the LFC, having been our 2018 LFC Champion in Mona, Utah. After riding three bulls over the weekend competition Hayes gained a total score of 223.5 points. Weight went home with a check for $4,000 and offered this advice to those hoping to make it to the LFC podium, “Just have fun. Don’t let that stress get to you. Just take it one bull at a time. They say that bull riding is 90% mental and 10% physical and I believe it.”

Adam Lucero, rounded out the winner’s podium. Coming in at third place, newcomer to the LFC, Lucero rode two out of his three bulls and claimed the highest point ride of the weekend, with an extraordinary score of 92. Lucero started his weekend strong by earning the chance to test his grit on the bounty bull, Rockin’ B All In Pro Rodeo’s, Harper’s Pet. Lucero dominated Harper’s Pet and had the fortune to draw the same bull in the short round, which increased his total earnings to $4,000. When asked if Lucero would come back and compete again in the LFC he enthusiastically said, “I will dang sure be back!” As the dust settles over the empty arena the LFC staff has
begun to set our gaze on our next 20 years. We thank God for this amazing sport, for the safety of the riders, pick up men, judges, stock contractors, bull fighters, barrelman, fans and everyone that made this event possible. We here at the Lane Frost Challenge are grateful for our sponsors, whose generosity allows us the privilege of putting on this event to honor the legacy of one brave young man, Lane Frost, who helped pave the way.

2019 NPBR World Champion - Kyle McDaniel
The National Professional Bull Riders would like to thank the bull riders, all the personnel and the spectators for making the Mercedes 2020 event a successful one. It was action packed, fun and the fans enjoyed every minute. Not only did they get to see veteran bull riders but also the up and coming talent that is traveling up and down the roads. Over the last 20 years, the NPBR has had the pleasure of providing a professional atmosphere to many bull riders. Whether they are World Champions or bull riders building their careers, they know to expect a quality production, professional contract personnel and an even set of world class bucking bulls.
Kyle McDaniel from Fort Worth, TX came to Mercedes number one in the standings with several trailing close behind. He was able to put some cash in his pocket therefore separating him
Daniel Keeping 2019 NPBR Finals Champion - Shane Semien
from the pack and was able to maintain that lead. We presented Kyle with the 2019 World Champion Monsoon Silver Trophy Buckle. He is one of the young bull riders that is making a name for himself. Keep an eye out, you will be seeing Kyle on the road to a great career. The 2019 Finals Monsoon Silver Champion Buckle was presented to veteran bull rider, Shane Semien from Beaumont, TX. Shane is the 2018 NPBR World Champion and even due to a 2019 injury, was able to come back and put two eight second rides together making him the Finals high money winner from the 2019 standings. Shane is a long time NPBR member and has won events and championship titles during this time. And then there was a new NPBR member, Jaron Hughes from Canton, TX. Jaron is a 2019 LRCA Year End Champion & Rookie of the Year along with 2019 UPRA Rookie of the Year. Jaron made his way to Mercedes, put two solid eight second rides together and was the high money winner for the 2020 Mercedes event. Jaron was presented the Mercedes Monsoon Silver Tour buckle.

SPURS
I love to hear the jingle, jangle rhythm of my spurs when I walk! But when I strut, my jingle bobs sing, and it causes folks to talk
When you call yourself cowboy, live out west and ride a horse all day You wear a hat, boots, chaps and spurs, it’s just the cowboy way
A cowboy struttin’ spurs down the street still causes some folks to gawk But I love to hear the jingle, jangle, rhythm of my spurs when I walk!
I wear em to ride, I wear em to eat, I wear em most all day long Them spurs are just a part of me, not wearin’ them would be wrong
There is a time, however, when my spurs might not belong… My Pa, he always told me, “Son, don’t squat with yer spurs on!”
I’m a bowlegged cowboy with swagger, but I hope I’m no laughingstock Cause I love to hear the jingle, jangle, rhythm of my spurs when I walk!
