Cowboy up (and down and up again)

Bareback rider John Collins of Buffalo went above and beyond the call of duty at Saturday's Cody Stampede PRCA Rodeo. Collins' steed went over backwards, taking the rider down to the ground for a bit of a roll in the dust, but the cowboy hung tough.

Check out this photo series of the wild ride, snapped by Tribune photog Carla Wensky:











Collins was given a re-ride, scoring a 75.
