Lane Frost! RIP. My son wanted to ride something fierce, but I wouldn't let him. Still our favorite movie of all time. My grandson's middle name is Lane!

My nephew watched that movie a 1000 times it's a wonder he did become a bullrider.

I wanted to ride a bull when I was young. My uncle said if he stepped on you leg it was done, that ended that thought.

Yep, I actually remember it when it happened. It was about a year and a half before my son was born, but I can't think of anything that has touched us both like that movie did. Hence my little buddy's middle name.

My belt buckle is a 1989 NFR. I've worn it all these years and kept track of it because it coincides with the year of his demise.

A lot of tough sumbitches were crying like babies when Tuff pulled this for LF, IRL as well as in the movie

Right about there is when the dust gets in my eyes, but when "once in a while" from billy dean comes on and they show the IRL footage, that's when I lose it.

There is, but it stops before the accident.

There is. It's 24 sec. It only shows the ride, not the infamous wave. I'm on my phone, can't figure out how to link it.
