Test bull riding knowledge, win tickets

The Pro Bull Riders are bringing back “the toughest sport on dirt” to the Bryce Jordan Center, and there are great seats waiting for you.

The Centre Daily Times is offering a suite with 14 tickets for each PBR Enterprise Rent-A-Car Tour event, Sept. 12 and 13, to readers who shine in our “No Bull” quiz.

True bullriding fans will sail through it, but others even mildly interested can find the answers easily.

We’ll select the two entrants with the most correct answers, and in case of a tie we’ll pick the winner at random. Entries are due Aug. 28. Be sure to include your name and contact information, and there’s only one entry allowed per person.

The questions will be published again in the CDT and will be posted on CentreDaily.com. They’ll also be available at the CDT tent at the Centre County Grange Encampment and Fair.

Completed forms can be dropped off at the CDT tent at the fair or in our lobby during business hours. They also can be sent to No Bull Contest, CDT newsroom, 3400 E. College Ave., State College, PA, 16801 or faxed to 238-1811.
