The 36th Annual George Paul Memorial has come to an end and Trey Benton will be added to the list of other legendary bull riders who have won the prestigious title. Names like as Tuff Hedeman, Lane Frost and Jim Sharp have all entered the history books all in honor of the man who many will say was the best bull rider of all time, George Paul.
\nBenton certainly is deserving of the honor. Over the last two nights he rode three bulls, each of them for 90 points!\u00a0 (Shine Time- The Dalton Gang, Lumber Jack- Johnson Rawley, Boys Town-Scott Burruss)
\nMobbed by fans after the event Benton stated, \u201cThis is what every cowboy dreams of winning.\u00a0 It\u2019s an honor and I\u2019m just overwhelmed by all the fans and the love they have for this event. It\u2019s the greatest feeling.\u201d
\nBenton was given the opportunity by Ram Country Dodge to make a $5,000 donation of his choice and he choose to give the check to fellow bull rider Jarred Long who broke his leg at the event in Las Vegas two weeks ago. Long will be out of competition and is unable to work because of the severity of the injury. The gift of this donation could not have come at a better time or a more appreciative person.
\n\u201cI just don\u2019t know what to say,\u201d a shocked Long said via phone when he was told about the donation. \u201cI mean I wish I could have been there in person, but this is just so amazing.\u00a0 I thank Trey and Ram County and I really am speechless.\u201d
\n\u201cI\u2019m just happy I could do it for him,\u201d stated a modest Benton. \u201cWe all do this for a living and when we can\u2019t make a living, than we need to step up and help each other out.\u201d
\nPalace Station Million Dollar Team winner is Johnson\/Rawson.
