“Twenty five years ago this weekend was a BIG weekend for me and Lane. We had a Challenge at Livermore and Lane made the 8 second whistle. Then we all loaded up. I was in my trailer and John Growney, Lane and another bullrider, Jeff Crockett, were in the truck hauling me. Somewhere in the middle of the night we stopped to gas up. Lane came back to visit with me. He said “Here we are, two Champs going down the road together.” We got into the rodeo grounds late – they got me in a pen with food and water and went off. A couple of hours later, they were back and it was time to rock and roll! Check out this photo that Linda Rosser took of us. You can even see John and Jeff Crockett behind the chutes! Linda took a great series of shots that shows me pretty high off that dirt!! She should post them. They’re great. She took the famous one of me and Lane at Red Bluff too. Maybe her daughter Cindy Rosser will help her get that done… anyway – big weekend this was!”
