A 6-year-old from North Texas is riding high after competing in a bull riding competition over the weekend.
Brody Parsons is a kindergartner at North Lamar Higgins Elementary School in Paris, about 100 miles northeast of Dallas.He competed in the World Champion Miniature Bullriding Finals in Mesquite last week. Over the weekend, he finished in the top 15.
Dad Jess Parsons, Jr. said taking up bull riding was Brody’s idea after watching the movie "8 Seconds." "My first time riding bulls, I liked it and I did a flip on it," Brody said. Parsons said he’s proud of his son for being brave enough to get on the back of a bucking animal and for competing against kids from all over the world.
He said the competitions are a little nerve-racking, but he gets to run alongside Brody to help guide him. If there is concern, he can quickly pull him off the animal."A little bit. Not a whole lot," he said.that I have read and agree
