A timed attraction people can follow from the aisle
The rodeo bull bucks and spins while one of our operators controls the ride from a separate console. You'll also hear it called a bucking bronco, a mechanical bull, a mechanical rodeo bull or a bull riding simulator, and they all come to the same thing: one rider at a time, a time on the display, and an inflatable bed round the machine.
On a trade-show floor that works in your favour. Someone walking past can tell what's going on without anyone explaining it, the timer gives every turn a result, and once there's a leaderboard going people tend to wander back later in the day to see if they've been knocked off it. We can keep it to a simple best-time competition, or if you tell us the format beforehand we'll run heats, a final and certificates for the top riders.
A normal three-hour session gets through somewhere around 40 to 60 rides, give or take. It depends how long people stay on, so treat it as a planning figure for the queue and the stand rota and not a promise.
Anyone riding needs to be 10 or over and at least 1.1m tall. The operator sets the pace for whoever is sat on it, so a first-timer gets a gentler ride than someone who has done it before.
