Fun Facts about Jared: He fulfilled a dream this year when he won the Calgary Stampede rodeo in his native country. While not all of the money counted towards world standings, it gave him a big boost and the potential to qualify for his second consecutive Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. He was the only man to ride all four bulls during the July competition and it is a title he can check off his bucket list. The two-time Canadian Champion Bull Rider said his career would never feel complete without the Calgary win. It makes sense. His family has been involved in rodeo for as long as he can remember and not only are they handy in the arena, they also raise cattle and horses. Through the ranching and rodeo, Jared’s cowboy skills have served him well. He and his wife, Tulsa, have a son Kade, and are expecting a new addition to Jared’s cheering section in February.
