Texas Rattlers: perfect at home for three seasons & counting

Fort Worth, TX — They say perfection is not attainable. Please do not tell that to the Texas Rattlers.

Saturday, Texas took care of business, defeating the Nashville Stampede 175.5 - 0.00.

With the victory, the Rattlers went a perfect 3-for-3 during PBR Teams: Rattler Days. Texas has never lost on its home dirt since the league started in July of 2022. The Rattlers are a perfect 9-0 all-time when riding in Fort Worth, TX. Texas is the only team in the league unbeaten at home.

Also noteworthy, Texas clinched a playoff berth with their victory over Nashville. The top 6 teams will go on to the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas (Oct. 18^th - 20^th ) to compete for the 2024 Camping World Team Series Championship.

The Rattlers took the game lead in the bottom of the first over the Stampede and never looked back. The pivotal score was an 87.5-point ride from Brady Fielder on Wingman. Fielder, who was 5-for-6 on the weekend, grew his lead in the 2024 PBR Teams MVP race to 109.5 points ahead of No. 2 John Crimber.

The home crowd fueled the Rattlers throughout their homestead. PBR Rattler Days marked the first-ever PBR Teams event in league history to sell-out all three days of game play. Texas rewarded their fans with one-sided victories each night. Thursday night the Rattlers beat the Oklahoma Wildcatters by 262.25 points.
