So then what they started doing in the 70s and 80s, they started finding Mexican fighting bowls. These are mean, nasty bulls, and they were breeding them with the bucking bulls. So the bucking bulls are big, powerful bulls. Then what would happen in the 80s and 90s? Guys used to be able to ride like 60, 70, maybe even 80% of the time they'd successfully get their eight seconds. By the 80s, it was down to 50%. Right now, it's down to like the 20s and 30s. The bulls are just bigger. They're meaner. And they buck just as hard. And the Cowboys are not only scared of how hard they're going to buck, but when they get thrown, that bowl is turning around to try and murder that cowboy because they're now they're mean. So it can be trained. It can be in a bulls case.”
