Glen Keely from Nanton was killed about 12 years ago at a PBR event in the US. Bull stepped square in the middle of him. Vest was not enough. He walked out of the arena and collapsed. He is buried in the Nanton cementary.

There are few killed each year. Many we don't hear about because it is south of the border.
Chris Self down in Med. Hat around 2000. Can't remember which year Lane Frost died, think it was '89. Cheyenne Frontier days.
