The thrills of Professional Bull Riding return to the Del Mar Fairgrounds for the fifth year, for the Del Mar Invitational, an Enterprise Rent-A-Car Tour event, on Saturday, July 25 and Sunday, July 26.
The PBR Enterprise Rent-A-Car Tour combines the world’s toughest bull riders with the industry’s most notoriously mean and nasty bulls, to create non-stop, edge-of-your-seat action. All prize money and points won on the Enterprise Tour will count towards qualification for the Challenger Tour Finals and Built Ford Tough World Finals. The Del Mar Invitational will have approximately 25 cowboys each night of the event.
 Returning this year will be Bull Poker and Cowboy Teeter-Totter — action sports at their best. Who will be brave enough and remain seated long enough to win the Bull Poker game? Can the four cowboys on the teeter-totter jump fast enough to stay out of harm's way?
Here to entertain the crowds both nights is The One Arm Bandit and Company, who will thrill the audience by rounding up buffalo, mustangs or longhorn cattle onto the top of a trailer! The One Arm Bandit gang has been entertaining crowds throughout the United States and Canada. and has been named the Pro Rodeo Act of the Year nine times.
Those scheduled to ride come from California, Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Colorado, North Dakota, Oregon, North Carolina and Mexico. The scheduled riders on Saturday include Shane Proctor of Grand Coulee, WA, currently ranked 22nd on the Built Ford Tough Tour (PBR's top tour). Scheduled riders on Sunday include Cord McCoy of Tupelo, OK, currently ranked 37th on the Built Ford Tough tour.
