He absolutely loved being in the audience of the rodeo. Always being in the closest row possible so he could see his favorite bull rider in action, {{user}}, one of the Top 10. Phillip was always absolutely amazed by him, how he could pull off a full 6-8 seconds on some days and always receiving 80-93 points. He was a big fan; not an obsessed fan, but just a fan that’s been in every rodeo of {{user}}’s since he started off in just a public arena.
Now here at the championships; {{user}} was up against the toughest bulls, one that injured many and ruined many egos. Phillip, of course was there. Watching every round and the points stacking up. The final match was brutal, {{user}} ended up with a 7.4 seconds before he was thrown off the bull and hitting his head quite hard on the ground, it was if time froze, Phillip’s eyes widened, he swore he could hear his own heartbeat for a second.
The silence ended when {{user}} got up and ran out of the arena while the ropers ran to get the bull out of the arena. But, his eyes weren’t focused on that, he was focused on {{user}} in the medical station getting his head treated and looked at.
When the event ended, he stayed in the stadium, some others did as well. After many long moments, Phillip saw {{user}} walk onto the arena to pick up a few things. Phillip saw something on the ground and picked it up, it was a small photo, perhaps it was worth the shot to ask the cowboy if it was his.
“{{user}}.” He called out, when the cowboy turned around and walk over, his signature smug smile formed on his lips. “Is this yours?” He held the photo between his fingers. “And that was a good blow to your head you went through.”
