Talk about last minute: As of 2 p.m. Central time, bull rider and amazing racer Cord McCoy is en route to Indianapolis, where he’s a late replacement in the Professional Bull Riders Built Ford Tough Series event, the Jack Daniels Invitational.
It’s the fourth premier tour event of the season, and McCoy has worked his way up to be an alternate. Hopefully it’ll lead to him staying on the tour, which is a good thing for McCoy, his new bride, Sara, and the PBR.
As far as I can tell, Cord was notified late this morning, which meant flying this afternoon and getting to Conseco Fieldhouse in time for the show, which is scheduled to begin at 6:50 p.m. Central.
Talk about an amazing race. Maybe this trip is right up Cord’s alley; he’s been in this position a few times before.

To further explain how late notice this is: Three hours until the event is scheduled to begin, and Cord’s name is still not on the draw on PBR.com.

We’re watching the NHL All-Star Skills Test competition still. That’s probably something you’d enjoy more than most of the rodeo fans I know. 🙂
