Families have been thrilling to the PBR Last Cowboy Standing. This year, the event will go down on May 13th during Las Vegas Helldorado Days, which takes place in Las Vegas Village, Nevada.
This will be the third annual PBR LCS, sponsored this year by the likes of Professional Bull Riders, Ford, the Las Vegas Elks and MGM Resorts, to name a few.

Once again, the PBR plans to promote the rugged fun of the cowboy life alongside a world-class production. Everyone that comes out to Las Vegas can expect parades, festivals, music, art shows, auctions and a golf tournament. There’s also the Whiskerino Contest and, of course, a lot of old fashioned, PBR bull riding action featuring some of the top professional athletes in the industry, including JB Mauney, Shane Proctor, Mike Lee, Cody Nance, Fabiano Vieira and last year’s big winner, Joao Ricardo Vieira. You can also expect Chad Berger to bring the pain. In 2015, he won his fifth Stock Contractor of the Year Championship and is determined to go for number six.

The PBR LCS makes for a perfect companion to the Las Vegas Helldorado Days event. Since 1934, long before Las Vegas became one of the most popular cities in the world, Helldorado Days reminded the world that a rugged lifestyle is still highly regarded and as fun as it gets.

The event grew with the city, with marching bands from around the country joining the festivities and resorts competing in best float competitions. The Whiskerino brought people from all walks of life to display and win prizes for their facial hair. And, of course, the rodeo attracted professional bull riders and a rapidly growing audience. Adding the PBR Last Cowboy Standing event to the Las Vegas Village proceedings only reinforced Helldorado’s tradition of inspiring community, pride and inspiration, rekindling interest in a classic lifestyle, its history and the spirit of this great country.

Every moment of the PBR LCS will be covered by the Cowboy Lifestyle Network, Ak-Chin Indian Community and Earnhardt Auto Centers Road Team.
