Worth Repeating: Jeremy Rode A Bull Without Training And Lived To Tell The Story

Pablo Navarro

Jeremy Jacob, once an adventurous college student, chose to ride a bull one day.

A punk rocker through and through, Jeremy lacked what he deemed the “necessary equipment” for bull riding like a cowboy hat, boots and a vest. These were items other bull riders seemed to have that day.

The “equipment” wasn’t necessary, what was mandatory was a dash of impulsivity, a brash audacious spirit and a $12 entry fee.
