J.B. Mauney Returns To Rodeo Polkville Saturday, June 18th
 J.B. Mauney is a professional bull rider, currently ranked 7th on the Professional Bull Riders (PBR)'s Built Ford Tough Series tour. He is 5 feet 10 inches tall and is a left-handed rider. In 2004 J.B. Mauney won the Bull Riding contest at Rodeo Polkville where he will return this Saturday night to try and repeat that performance.  His first season in the PBR was in 2006, and he finished 25th in the world standings and won the Daisy Rookie of the Year award. He finished in 3rd place in the 2007 BFTS World Standings behind Justin McBride and Guilherme Marchi. In 2008 he finished 2nd behind Marchi. In 2009 he finished 2nd again, this time behind Kody Lostroh. However, he achieved history at the 2009 PBR World Finals when he won the event by becoming the only man in PBR history to ride 8 bulls at the Finals. The bulls he rode were Chester, Troubadour, Crosswired (who fell down; Mauney did his re-ride on Black Smoke), Ricky Bobby, Beer Goggles, Live Wire, Smack Down and Black Pearl. Mauney rode Black Pearl for the highest score at the finals. J.B. currently lives in Mooresville, North Carolina.
