4. 'The most dangerous eight seconds in sports'
Guests got a taste of life in the rodeo ring on the 'bucking bronco'. Real life bull riding, which involved riders in full cowboy gear clinging for dear life to bucking bulls, has been called "the most dangerous eight seconds in sports." Photo: Daniel Martino
