PBR Camping World Team Series Debuts in Duluth, Georgia July 26-28

By: Kacie Albert

DULUTH, Ga. – For the first time in history, the PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Camping World Team Series will buck into Duluth, Georgia, bringing the transformative team bull riding league to Gas South Arena on July 26-28, 2024.

Tickets for the event go on sale Friday, February 16 at 10 a.m. EST, and start at $22, taxes and fees not included. They can be purchased online at Ticketmaster.com and PBR.com, or by calling PBR customer service at 1-800-732-1727 or Gas South Arena at 470-639-8243.

PBR Teams launched in 2022 with eight founding teams. Those teams are: Arizona Ridge Riders of Glendale, Arizona; Austin Gamblers of Austin, Texas; Carolina Cowboys of Greensboro, North Carolina; Florida Freedom of Sunrise, Florida; Kansas City Outlaws of Kansas City, Missouri; Missouri Thunder of Ridgedale, Missouri; Nashville Stampede of Nashville, Tennessee; and Texas Rattlers of Fort Worth, Texas.

While each team hosts a homestand, the league also holds two neutral site events. Gas South Arena and Duluth will welcome the league for the first neutral site event, followed by the Camping World Team Series returning to Anaheim, California, later in the campaign.

PBR Teams builds on the existing structure of professional bull riding with the same basic rules for judging and scoring qualified 8-second bull rides. Events are structured in a tournament-style format with all teams competing in head-to-head matchups against a different opponent each day.

In each game, five riders on a team square off against another team. Full team rosters are comprised of up to seven riders on the Protected Roster and up to five Reserve Roster members. The team with the highest aggregate score of qualified rides among its riders is declared the winner of each game, and each game day has a team winner as well.

All PBR Team Series events are carried on CBS Television Network, Paramount+, CBS Sports Network or Pluto TV.

In 2023, the Texas Rattlers rode supreme, crowned the PBR Teams Champions in the league’s second season. After finishing the regular season No. 3 in the league, they defeated the No. 8 Missouri Thunder, and No. 4 Oklahoma Freedom to advance to the Semifinals for the second consecutive season.

 
After knocking off the No. 5 Arizona Ridge Riders in the Semifinals, they beat the No. 1 Austin Gamblers by one ride score in the season’s final game to be crowned Champions.

The Texas Rattlers dethroned the 2022 PBR Teams Champion Nashville Stampede who won the league’s inaugural title in Cinderella form. After advancing to the first-ever PBR Teams Championship No. 8 in the league, they knocked off the No. 3 Freedom, No. 1 Gamblers, No. 2 Rattlers and No. 5 Ridge Riders to claim the title.

The bull riding action for the 2024 PBR Camping World Team Series event in Duluth, Georgia, at Gas South Arena begins at 7:45 p.m. ET on Friday, July 26, 6:45 p.m. ET on Saturday, July 27, and 1:45 p.m. ET on Sunday, July 28.
