Barrelman

101 Wild West Rodeo

   
 

Barrelman - John Harrison

 

John Harrison was born into rodeo.


The grandson of the great Freckles Brown, the 1967 world champion bull rider and one of the first inductees into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame, Harrison was raised around the sport.

 

This barrelman and specialty acts performer is a multi-talented entertainer specializing in Roman riding, trick riding, trick roping and comedy. As a barrelman, he and his two paint horses, Gus and Mouse, wow the crowds.

 

The barrelman at a rodeo serves a dual purpose--he provides the protective barrel for the bull-riding competition and is the comic relief for the entire show.

 

He will bring his entertaining show to Ponca City as the contract act and funnyman for the 101 Wild West Rodeo, which will take place August 12 thru 14. Performances will be 8:00 p.m. nightly.

 

 

John Harrison and his Bull Fighters provide a line of defense for bull riders in the arena.
While they swap one-liners with rodeo announcer Dr. Lynn Phillips, they also perform the important task of distracting the bulls and keeping them away from the riders.
