Bulls, big rigs and an “Unbelievable” band will command attention at Bull Bash, a combination bull-riding contest, equipment expo and country concert. The two-day expo opens today at the Tri-State Exhibition Center, 2.5 miles east of I-75 at Exit 20 in Cleveland, Tenn.
The American BullRiders Tour will offer two days of competitions in the national finals for some of the profession’s top bull riders.
The equipment expo features displays and demonstrations of the latest products and tools from manufacturers and local dealers. New this year is the Big Rig Show ‘n’ Shine headlined by the re-created Snowman trailer from the “Smokey and the Bandit” movies. Other highlights are the Shell Rotella Road Show and rides from “Trick My Truck.”
Midway rides and a designated activity area will be available for kids.
Winding up the event Saturday night at 6 will be a concert by Diamond Rio, six-time winners of Vocal Group of the Year by the leading country music organizations. The group is known for such hits as “Unbelievable,” “Meet in the Middle” and “One More Day.” Their latest release is a gospel album, “The Reason.”
