Long hair? I wish I still had some of it. He pretty much paved the way for others in the sport to build a brand. Buy stock in the Rocker brand while it’s cheap.

Sorry to hear about Larry Mahan. I met him once in the commissary at MGM, having lunch. He seemed like a very nice, outgoing person. He was there talking with a producer about something. Just guessing, it might have been about being a technical advisor on a picture that MGM was filming.
As for supreme rodeo performers, don't forget about this great rodeo cowboy, Jim Shoulders.

He was a good guy. My thoughts: He was a showmen, people wanted to see a rodeo, he gave it his best they saw one.
That cowboy is resting now. No hurting joints and no sore back.
Take care.

Casper Baca bulls,late 80s or early 90s? What’s up with the t-shirts? Even if you bucked off on the next jump, that picture is LEGIT!

Early 90’s. The t-shirts were for a bar match/calcutta. Tony from the Red Carpet made a pocket full of money that day. Bucking off that day wasn’t an option, Cap’ threatened me with great bodily harm. Long hair? I wish I still had some of it. He pretty much paved the way for others in the sport to build a brand.
