VIP Experience Packages with Exclusive Chute Seats on Sale Now for First Half of
2010
What`s a Chute Seat?!? If you can`t ride the bull yourself, the next best thing
is a seat right ON TOP of the bull chute. You read it right - this isn`t behind
the chute, these seats are on a custom platform ON TOP of the chute so you can
be ON TOP of all the action. As the riders walk right by you to get on the bulls
below you, you can high five them or give them last minute words of
encouragement. Then get ready! Your seat will shake as the enraged bull thunders
around then storms out of the chute, spinning mere feet in front of you. The
only way you can get closer to the action is to be a bull rider or employee of
PBR! These seats are extremely limited, and they`re only available to TeamPBR
members.
The new TeamPBR VIP Fan Experience packages include the option to purchase the
most coveted seats in the house - the chute seats, a chance to go nose to nose
with a bull as you tour the bull pens, pre-event round-up parties, a personal
meet and greet with a star bull rider where you can get an autograph and photo
from the rider, and enough TeamPBR gear to outfit a cowpoke in style. VIP
packages for the first events of the 2010 PBR season and the final events of the
2009 season are on sale now. Visit www.TeamPBR.com or call 800-732-1727 for
details.
