…of legendary bull rider, Lane Frost, who passed away suddenly on Tuesday at the age of 60. Frost, a four-time Professional Bull Riders (PBR) World Champion, was a beloved figure in the bull riding community and is widely regarded as one of the greatest riders in the history of the sport.
Frost’s career spanned over three decades, during which he won numerous championships and accolades, including four PBR World Championships, three National Finals Rodeo (NFR) titles, and two PRCA World Championships. He was known for his exceptional skill, bravery, and dedication to the sport, earning him the nickname “The King of the Bull Riders.”
Frost’s impact on the sport of bull riding went beyond his impressive resume. He was a mentor, a teacher, and an inspiration to countless young riders, many of whom have gone on to become champions in their own right. His legacy will continue to be felt for generations to come.
The PBR community is in shock and mourning, with tributes pouring in from riders, stock contractors, and fans around the world. “Lane Frost was a true legend and a hero to so many of us,” said PBR CEO Sean Gleason. “His passing leaves a huge void in our sport, but his memory and legacy will never be forgotten.”
Frost’s family, including his wife, Kellie, and son, Lane Jr., have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support and condolences. “We are heartbroken, but we take comfort in knowing that Lane’s impact on the world of bull riding will never be forgotten,” said Kellie Frost.
A celebration of Frost’s life and career will be held at the PBR World Finals in November, where riders and fans will gather to honor his memory and legacy.
