Colton Fritzlan, Rifle Cowboy Makes Garfield County Proud

We apologize for being so tardy in wishing congratulations to Colton Fritzlan, one time young bull rider at the Carbondale Wild West Rodeo and pictured above. We were experiencing technical difficulties during the time and then figured it was old news. However, in thinking it over and watching Colton continue his winning ways we wanted to give a shout out and say — Keep it Coming!!! We are so proud of you here at CWWR.

As reported by PBR news — OKEECHOBEE, Fla. – Debuting on the elite PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Unleash The Beast in Okeechobee, Florida, rising star Colten Fritzlan (Rifle, Colorado) was a picture of perfection, going a flawless 3-for-3 to win the American Roots Edition’s PBR Coors Banquet Invitational at the Agri-Civic Center.
