Hotels for PBR: Unleash the Beast

Bull riding at this level comes down to eight seconds of pure reaction, rider against animal with no second attempt if it goes wrong early. The tour brings its top-ranked competitors together for a single afternoon of stops, restarts and rides that separate the leaderboard from the rest. Expect a loud, packed arena crowd that reacts to every buzzer and every bad landing, and a schedule that moves fast between competitors. A Sunday afternoon start makes it an easy watch without cutting into the evening.

Home to the Celtics and Bruins, TD Garden sits above North Station in the heart of Boston, a leading arena for basketball, ice hockey and major concerts. The surrounding area, close to the North End's celebrated restaurants and the historic Freedom Trail, is thoroughly walkable. North Station's subway and commuter rail lines are directly below. Booking a room in central Boston lets you walk to the show, enjoy the North End's dining and return to your bed within minutes once it finishes.
