Jaxton Mortensen will be competing on Saturday and 27 News asked Mortensen what his favorite part about competing is.
“My favorite part about Bull riding, honestly, is just like a family that we have like throughout all of the bull riding industry,” Jaxton Mortensen told 27 News. “Like, you run into people that knew one of your friends and then you’re your brothers after that, and then you go on and stay in places and you just being in new places and traveling is great.”
