The country is coming to the city, as nearly three dozen of the world's top bull riders are competing this weekend at Madison Square Garden.

Riders at the Professional Bull Riders 20th annual competition shared how to best prepare for eight seconds on a bucking bull.

"Not only is the competition hard, the bulls are really hard to ride and the bulls are the best there are in the world as well," said bull rider Brendon Clark. "So when you them two together, the competition is always extremely hard to win."

"There's always a little bit of fear in you, you know what I mean? But I think that if any guy says there isn't any fear at all I think he's probably lying to you," said bull rider Ty Pozzobon.

"Strapping on to a 2,000-pound animal? To do that, you've got to be brave," said bull rider Ryan Dirteater.

Ticket prices range from $20 to about $200. For more information, visit thegarden.com.
