Just got home from Reno... HAD WAYYYY TOOO Much fun!! LOL...
Hung out with Terri and Mary. Also met up with Cindy and Marci, Karen you were missed!! Also hung out with a couple stock contractors and bull riders most of the weekend. Oh and of course our good friend Brandon! Played a little black jack, went to the after parties... WOW, I love Reno, we never really left the casino (only to walk to the event). Great times..can't wait for Detroit
Sorry, Holly don't really have any pictures... We only takes pics with the riders if they are signing places and at the bar we just socialize with them. The pics we have are of us and our other friends we met there.
BTW, for those that comment about the brazilians not speaking any english. They do.. I had convos with a bunch of them this weekend and they are surprisingly well versed in English... sure some sentences are broken but you still know what they are saying.

Well Kelly summed it up pretty well. It was a fantastic! When you take bullriders, contractors, PBR personnel, fans, Sunny Ledfurd, a little alcohol and gambling and stir well it makes for a great weekend! (I think almost everyone felt stirred well at some point this weekend!)
It might also help that I won during the gambling part! I do have to confess however, that I did not fare as well in Black jack tournament. I hung in until the last hand of round one but the cards did not fall my way so I ended up 4th on my table. The other fan at the table was the chip leader followed by Mike Lee and Dustin Hall that finished pretty close together. I did however, outlast Cord McCoy and Colby Yates on my table. Colby had the distinct honor of being the first one eliminated from the tournament. Best to be first at something.
The best part of the weekend was getting to meet and hang out with so many really great people. (Recognition has to be given to the host hotel as well that was VERY accommodating!! It made it a lot easier to have a great time!!)
The event was also great. The arena is much smaller then most of the other BFTS stops which gave it a bit of a different feel, a little more focused on the rides. The only downside of the event was seeing Rob injured but Shorty did a great job coming in as a replacement.
The recovery is still in progress, especially since my connecting flight was delayed and I did not make it home until 3AM. Oh well as was the theme of the weekend you can sleep when you are dead or you pass out from exhaustion.

well those 2 girls summed it up great. the event was awesome and i had a ton of fun. the only thing is that i am still stuck in reno!!! the donnnor pass that i have to go over is closed from snow, and i probly wont get home til tomorrow, luckly i have my aunt to stay here with so i am all set.
the afterparty was a ton of fun. sunny ledfurd is awesome in person for thier concert, it was the first time getting to see them play live. when SL took a break from singing, the pbr 'all-star' band got on stage and sang a few songs. it was fun to watch colby yates and jake mcintyre singing. one of the funniest moments was telling chuck norris facts with a few people from SL. haha, and u poeple thought that only me and terri liked those, lol.
and like kelly said, we got to meet some brazillians and they were very personably and were having fun. they spoke engish fairly well and put out the effort to talk with us.
and we took a few pics, not to many though, i know i was the offical picture taker and what not but i totolly forgot to take them!! i guess i am fired from that job!
