Despite the nationwide restrictions on public events and live sports, last year the inaugural Osage Bronc Days PRCA Xtreme Broncs was jam-packed with all the bronc riding action fans could ask for and so much more. The Osage Bronc Days have been on the rise, gaining global and regional attention. It has now established itself as an annual event in Osage county. Not only was the event supported by national and local partnerships, but contestants poured in from all over the United States and Canada to compete.

Canadian PRCA Bronc Rider, Ben Anderson made the 1,800-mile trek to Oklahoma after drawing Dakota Rodeo’s Cash Deal to win Osage Bronc Days. His earnings in Pawhuska, OK, and Redmond, OR that weekend combined for the biggest jump across all events within the op 15 of the PRCA | RAM World Standings for March 22-28, 2021. Andersen launched 25 spots, from 35th to 10th, helping qualify him for his first National Finals Rodeo (NFR). He’s proved Osage Bronc Days to be a game-changer for PRCA standings.

Sunday, March 6, 2022, in Arlington, TX, Anderson rematched with Dakota Rodeo’s Cash Deal for 88 points to advance to the short go at The American to compete for $2,000,000. Championship Pro Rodeo’s Feather Fluffer got the best of him in the short go, but will he have the chance for redemption at Osage Bronc Days?

Biography:

Howdy, I'm Megan deFabry. I grew up in Reno, Nevada, but since 2017 my heart has called Texas home. I now reside in Austin, Texas since 2020. I'm driven by my faith, cherished relationships with family and friends, and my professional ambitions. I'm passionate about digital marketing and journalism, especially the wide-open spaces of America's Western lifestyle, the grit of agriculture, the excitement of rodeo, and the heart of country music.

For nearly a decade, I've been sharing this way of life through storytelling. And like any good cowboy tale, there's a loyal sidekick, my little Dachshund, Frank, who I adopted from a shelter in New Braunfels, Texas, back in 2018. He keeps me grounded, reminding me to chase horizons and savor life's simple joys.

I graduated from Texas State University with a Bachelor of Science in Consumer Affairs and a minor in Mass Communication. My major taught me to decode consumer behavior, which is crucial for marketing, while my minor sharpened my storytelling skills. Since then, I've spent years mastering SEO and content strategy, staying ahead in a fast-moving field. My work even caught the eye of Cowboy Lifestyle Network's CTO, Irish Padmore, who recognized me for contributing to his research on Consumer Behavior in the Age of AI.

Since 2018, I've been honored to work at Cowboy Lifestyle Network. Now as Editor-in-Chief writing, editing, and publishing articles that capture the cowboy spirit, crafting strategies rooted in Western values, and building real client connections. Guided by ethical journalism, I aim to tell stories that resonate and reflect the unsung heroes of the Western spirit.
