WASHINGTON, Mo. — The Bass Edge (www.bassedge.com) television show is getting a front row seat to the “toughest show on dirt.” Host Aaron Martin and the Bass Edge crew will team up with B&W Trailer Hitches (www.turnoverball.com) to attend the Professional Bull Riding (PBR) World Finals this week in Las Vegas.
“I am a huge bull-riding fan!” Martin said. “Local rodeos have always been part of my summer fun and the opportunity to join B&W Trailer Hitches and blend Bass Edge with the best bull riders in the world is quite humbling. Fans of PBR and Bass Edge have a lot in common, and there is no doubt it will be a great week with B & W.”
We are very excited to have Aaron and the Bass Edge team along for a great ride during the PBR Finals in Las Vegas. Having Bass Edge on board will bring a new element to the B&W booth, one that Im certain our fans will truly enjoy at the Fan Zone, said Scott Marsh, Director of Sales & Marketing, B & W Trailer Hitches.
More than three dozen of the world’s top bull riders will compete through Nov. 9 for more than $3 million in prizes at the Thomas and Mack Center on the University of Nevada campus in Las Vegas. Martin and the Bass Edge crew also will meet fans at the PBR Fan Zone & Marketplace at the official host hotel of the PBR Finals, the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino.
