The rodeo is a daring game and takes courage to make a name in it. All it takes is the first eight seconds to decide the game. If the first eight seconds go well so will your ride but if it doesn’t go well it will feel like never-ending eight seconds. Usually, the rodeo champs secure 90 points in a successful ride but there are some extraordinary athletes who are just pros in it.

The 2023 Unleash the Beast season started on November 27 last year in  Arizona and ended on a great note on May 21 this year in Texas. It was the season of ups and downs for many but few are there who earn the name. Such a  player was the “The Ice Man.” who was the best performer of the season. However, as the new season proceeds, new perspectives emerge and excitement reaches high.
