BY JOHN MASTALIR jmastalir@yahoo.com

HERE HE IS....! !

AND HE HAS TO BE SO DAMN YOUNG AND GOOD LOOKING

Jess Lockwood

JESS LOCKWOOD ..THE NEW PBR WORLD CHAMPION AT 20...DID IT ALL... ALL YEAR

THIS.... ALL AT THE T-MOBILE IN LAS VEGAS THE FIRST WEEK OF NOVEMBER.

FOLLOWING......... RANDOM THOUGHTS AND REACTIONS TO THE WEEK...

ANYTIME YOU ARE AT A MGM PROPERTY THERE ARE DOZENS OF OVER STAFFERS
TELLING YOU WHAT NOT TO DO AND WHERE NOT TO GO....THERE IS AN
AMAZING 20 YEAR HISTORY ON THIS AND IT CONTINUES HERE..THIS THE HOME
OF THE LAS VEGAS KNIGHTS NHL HOCKEY TEAM...CERTAIN THEY HAVE THE
SAME UNFRIENDLY ISSUES..

YEAR TWO AT THIS VENUE...WITHOUT THE COUNTRY MUSIC SINGING (NOISE)
BREAKS IN THE MIDDLE .......A BIG PLUS FOR SURE..

AT THE THOMAS AND MACK (PREVIOUS HOME TO THIS EVENT)....THE
REPLAY SCOREBOARDS WERE THE SIZE OF THE ARENA...JUST MARVOLOUS...
NOT HERE....A MINITURE CUT DOWN VERSION...AND THE TOTAL NUMBERS FOR
THE SCORING ON THIS SCREEN ONLY UP FOR MILASECONDS....YOU SHOULD ALWAYS LEAVE IT UP SO YOU CAN READ IT TWICE....ANYWAY THATS WHAT THEY
TAUGHT US IN JOURNALISM SCHOOL IN THE SIXTIES...

THIS IS JUST A GREAT EVENT....ALWAYS HAS BEEN....5 DAYS OF WONDERFUL
FAST FIRST CLASS ACTION....THE PBR AND NASCAR...ALL THATS LEFT FOR ME.

WONDERFULLY MANAGED AND SPONSERED....LOTS OF GOOD WORK PUT INTO
THIS EFFORT....THANKS FOR PAYING THE BILLS..

DURING THE LAST ROUND THERE WAS A FLASHING LIGHT RIGHT BEHIND THE
CHUTE.....WHAT A IDEA TO HAVE A SPOTLIGHT IN YOUR FACE SO
YOU CAN'T SEE ! ! !

TOO MANY HORNS AND WHISTLES ....IF YOU CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF THE BUFFERS
IN COMBAT SPORTS....AND YOU CAN...NOW THE PBR HAS PLUGGED IN.....
WE HAD AN IMITATOR INTRODUCE THE TOP FIVE RIDERSS WITH THEIR WEIGHT AND
SIZE DONE IN A SCREAMING VOICE....NOT TAUGHT IN JOURNALSIM SCHOOL IN
THE SIXTIES....!

FANS AND COWBOYS AT THIS EVENT ALWAYS FIRST CLASS AND THE DOZENS OF
SECURITY OFFICERS UNNEEDED ALTHO I UNDERSTAND THE PRECAUTIONS...

NOT SELLOUTS AND TICKETS AVAILABLE FREE ON FIL A SEATS....DONT KNOW
WHAT THIS MEANS.....THEY COULD NOT FILL THE THOMAS AND MACK AND
CANNOT FILL T-MOBILE BUT THERE WERE BIG CROWDS.

REPLAYS ON THESE TINY SCREENS (COMPARED TO THE THOMAS AND MACK)
ALMOST DIFFICULT  TO FOLLOW AND THE SCREENS ON SOME SIDES LARGER
THAN OTHERS....I OF COURSE GOT THE SMALL SCREEN.

BULL FIGHTERS...... A HALL OF FAME TEAM OF GUTS AND GRIT AND DARING AND
ON SUNDAY THEY HAD AN EARLY RIDER TIED UP WITH HIS FOOT UNDER THE
BULL.....FOUR FIGHTERS ON THE GROUND TO THE RESCUE....THANK YOU..

HEAD CLOWN FLINT RASMUSSON A TREAT TO SEE NIGHTLY...ALWAYS ON THE
SPOT ON FOCUS AND MAKES A LOT OF HIS CRAP UP AS HE GOES ALONG..
FLINT.....THE WORLD LOVES YOU...

NOISE DURING THE BREAKS AND STOPPAGES NOT QUITE AS BAD AS THE PAST...
POSSIBLY PRAYERS ARE ANSWERED...

BEING A JOURNALIST AND ANNOUCER I ALWAYS APPRECIATE GOOD PA WORK...
CLINT ADKINS  AND BRANDON BATES THE BEST IN THE WORLD.......ALWAYS ON
THEIR GAME WITH UP DATES AND INFOR AND FACTS...



JOSE VITOR LEMME....EVENT CHAMPION

CAME INTO TOWN FOR 10 DAYS...GOT ON 10 BULLS RODE THEM ALL TO
INCLUDE A 94.5 SCORE IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND...SALUTE

THE MONEY IS GOING BACK TO BRAZIL...

SO PROUD TO HAVE THIS WONDERFUL EVENT IN LAS VEGAS CONSTANTLY...
THEY ARE BACK IN MAY FOR  A  MIDSEASON RUSH...DON'T KNOW WHERE ?

BLESS THE PBR...
