Darci Miller | PBR
Eduardo Aparecido has quietly put together a dominant season, but it’s not so quiet after his performance in Billings. Plus, Thiago Salgado kept his momentum going, Velocity Tour action continued, and more. Miss a moment of the action this weekend? Here’s what happened around the PBR.
On the Unleash The Beast…

Eduardo Aparecido’s nickname is Fast Eddy, and in the blink of an eye, he shot to No. 2 in the Unleash The Beast World Championship standings. Aparecido won his second event of the season in Billings, Montana, to gain ground on No. 1 Cassio Dias.
Aparecido spent the whole weekend at the front of the pack, beginning with his Round 1 win.
Thiago Salgado also continued his steady climb up the standings thanks to a win in Round 2.
Meanwhile, on the Pendleton Whisky Velocity Tour…
Dalton Krantz won the PBR Lincoln, earning a chance to attempt Larry the Cable Guy’s bounty bull. You could say he… got ‘er done.
In Eugene, Oregon, Shane Scott won Round 1…
…and hung on to take the event win.
In the Touring Pro Division…
Elizmar Jeremias took home the event win at the 58th PBR Stockyards Showcase in Fort Worth, Texas.
