Timeline

1970

Glen Keeley (March 20, 1970 – March 24, 2000) was a Canadian professional rodeo cowboy who specialized in bull riding.

He competed on the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association (CPRA), Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA), Bull Riders Only (BRO), and Professional Bull Riders (PBR) circuits.

Glen Keeley was born on March 20, 1970, in Nanton, Alberta.

1983

In 1983, he won the CPRA national steer riding riding championship at the age of 13.

1989

He won the 1989 CPRA national bull riding championship in 1989.

In 1989, he won the CPRA national bull riding championship at the age of 19.

1993

His lone qualification to the PRCA's year-end National Finals Rodeo (NFR) was in 1993.

He also made a couple of trips to the BRO Finals.

1994

His brother Jason, also a bull rider, was nearly killed in a bull-riding wreck in 1994, but made a full recovery.

Glen qualified several times for the CPRA's year-end Canadian Finals Rodeo (CFR).

He competed at the inaugural PBR World Finals in 1994.

1996

In the Championship Round, Owen Washburn, the 1996 PBR World Champion, drew Promise Land, the same bull that caused Keeley's fatal injuries.

Washburn rode him for 95.5 points and won the event.

Six days after his death, almost 1,500 people paid their respects to Keeley at his memorial service.

He was survived by his parents, sister and five brothers who were all bull riders at one time or another.

Keeley's remains were cremated and his ashes were spread on a hillside overlooking his family ranch in Stavely, Alberta.

Four months after Keeley's death, fellow Canadian bull rider Chris Self died after sustaining serious injuries at the Medicine Hat, Alberta, rodeo.

1999

It was the first round and Keeley drew the bull Promise Land, who was the 1999 PBR Bull of the Year and owned by Terry Williams.

During the ride, Keeley was bucked off, landed under the bull's hooves and was stomped on.

He broke his left arm and evidently had some internal injuries, but managed to walk out of the arena on his own.

He had been talking and joking with the nurses when he arrived at the hospital.

At five feet, seven inches tall, Keeley was one of the smaller riders on the Bud Light Cup Tour.

Promise Land was a massive bull, weighing over 900 kilograms.

Despite wearing a mandatory protective vest, the bull's stomping caused severe damage.

As it turned out, Keeley also broke some ribs, suffered a punctured lung, and lacerated his liver.

Up to that point, his vitals were fine.

He then went into surgery, but bled to death on the operating table before the surgeons could repair his internal damage.

He was ranked ninth in the PBR world standings at the time of his death, and the money he had won up to that point would have been enough to qualify him for the PBR World Finals.

Promise Land was not considered a mean bull, and the incident was accepted as a "freak accident."

The next day, during Round 2, all the PBR riders, stock contractors, and staff wore yellow ribbons in honor of Keeley.

2000

He had competed sporadically in the PBR, but by 2000, was riding there full-time.

He had numerous top finishes on the Bud Light Cup Tour early in the year and was well on his way to qualify for his second PBR World Finals.

On March 24, 2000, four days after his 30th birthday, Keeley was competing at the PBR Bud Light Cup's Ty Murray Invitational, the annual event at Tingley Coliseum in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

After Keeley's death, PBR bull riders wore a memorial sticker on their protective vests for the remainder of the 2000 season.

It included Keeley's name and contestant back number, 68, which was ultimately retired from PBR competition.

Keeley was given a tribute at the 2000 PBR World Finals in Las Vegas, Nevada.

At the event, the Glen Keeley Award was introduced.

From 2000 through 2012, it was presented to the Canadian bull rider who won the most money during the season on the PBR circuit.

2004

Since 2004, the Glen Keeley Memorial Bull Riding, sanctioned by the PBR, has been held every summer in honour of Keeley.

2013

Since 2013, it has been presented to the Canadian bull rider who won the most points in the PBR world championship race.
