Bull riders develop a passion that is second to none. Josh Edward “Turtle” Griffin of Garrison was no exception.

From birth he dreamed of being a cowboy, and a “cowboy” he was, riding and spurring everything in the yard, including a propane tank. Many people hope to get “15 minutes of fame”; bull riders just want 8 seconds at a time.
