FRIED TWINKIES, BUCKLE BUNNIES: A YEAR INSIDE THE PROFESSIONAL BULL RIDERS TOUR

Description: Vintage FRIED TWINKIES, BUCKLE BUNNIES: A YEAR INSIDE THE PROFESSIONAL BULL RIDERS TOUR by Josh Peter FIRST EDITION AND FIRST PRINTING In Fried Twinkies, Buckle Bunnies, & Bull Riders, award-winning sports journalist Josh Peter takes readers along on the Professional Bull Riders tour to witness the death-defying confrontation between man and beast that has made bull riding the fastest growing sport in the world. Success in this sport is measured in seconds-staying on a bull for 8 seconds without getting tossed is likely to secure the rider a big score. Josh Peter captures the high drama of the sport and introduces readers to a culture that's rife with colorful characters: courageous riders, scouts, breeders, love-struck groupies, and a few of those very angry bulls. — “John Feinstein would be proud to include (Fried Twinkies) in his body of work. It's that good.” ―Booklist “These are the brave souls who hang on for dear life (and glory) in Josh Peter's thrilling Fried Twinkies, Buckle Bunnies, and Bull Riders” ―ESPN the Magazine “Richly detailed and deftly told, Josh Peter's chronicle . . . is a rollicking, ribald take on the 8 most dangerous seconds in sport. You come away grateful that Peter has brought his considerable skills to the subject.” ―Wayne Coffey, best-selling author of The Boys of Winter “Josh Peter's grip on his subject is as sure as that of the extraordinary men atop these astonishing beasts. Come discover an American fiesta: the Riding of the Bulls.” ―Gary Smith, writer, Sports Illustrated — Reader Reviews: 5.0 out of 5 stars Bull Riding Fan Or Not - You'll Love "Fried Twinkies..." I LOVED the book. Not knowing (or caring) anything about bull riding, I was not expecting to get into it, but I did. Folks outside "the sport" should know what an interesting and fun read "Fried Twinkies..." is. I really developed a love for the riders and I was rooting for them. I wanted Moraes to get his third buckle but Lee was so deep and introspective, I was not surprised at how far he went. I couldn't wait for the end!! I was truly transported into a world I knew nothing about and it was really a full picture. I expected the cussing, drinking, etc., but the Cowboy Church, political/business takeover of the tour and even the story from the breeders and bulls POV had oh so much drama -- showing again how once someone or a group of someones finds a passion, it drives individuals and creates industry. Plus the search for the deep fried Twinkies at the concession stands was a hoot!! — 5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT! An oldie but a goodie! For fans of rodeo, especially bull riding, this is a helluva look at everything that goes on behind the scenes of the bull riding tour. You'll meet the crazy riders and the badass bulls, the wives, the loves and the groupies. You'll hop on the back of one of those big horned brutes and come out of the chute, holding on for dear life. This is a great book on a rough and tumble subject!
