The world’s greatest classic car show rolled into Scottsdale, Arizona, which is actually where the Barrett-Jackson headquarters is located. You can also catch Barrett-Jackson auctions around the nation in Orange County, CA, Palm Beach, FL, Reno and Las Vegas, NV. However, the year of 2014 brought the world’s greatest collector car event in Scottsdale something that has never been done before, a bull riding event.

When you mix Barrett Jackson automobile auctions with Bull Riding, you can be certain that Cowboy Lifestyle Network is in the midst of the event capturing all the adrenaline-packed action. The Barrett Jackson Bull Riding Challenge took place on January 17-18^th at the Miller Lite Garage inside the WestWorld Equidome in Scottsdale, Arizona.

This world-class Barrett-Jackson event was made up of some of the best bucking bulls picked from four stock contractors along with 20 of the top Arizona bull riders from the Turquoise Circuit Finals Rodeo. As a result, some of the gnarliest bull rides, hang-ups, and Rodeo Wrecks took place during the Barrett Jackson Bull Riding Challenge.

As a matter of fact, Parada del Sol Rodeo boss Dave Alford and Vice President Jake Jacobson did an outstanding job organizing the event during the auction for the Parada del Sol launch party for the PRCA Pro Rodeo. Below is the official 61^st Annual Parada del Sol 2014 Event schedule:
