A robust crowd packed the stands Friday night in Grunthal for the fan-favourite Bull-A-Rama.

Thirteen top bull riders from across the country held on for eight seconds or less as more than a thousand spectators cheered them on.

A rainshower midway through the evening caused some spectators to take shelter, but most crowd members stayed put to catch the second round of bull riding. The rain subsided after about 10 minutes.
