Pearl Harbor was going strong until the very end, passing away in late April on stock contractor Chad Berger’s ranch in North Dakota. Just 6 years old at the time of his passing, Pearl Harbor was 61-6 at all levels of the PBR and was unridden on the 25th PBR: Unleash The Beast in 2018, including three 47-plus bull scores in his last four outs. While Pearl Harbor did plenty of bucking off, on the rare occasion he was ridden, the sky was the limit when it came to the score. The highest was a monster 94.25 points courtesy of J.B. Mauney in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in April of 2016. Berger thinks that ride is better than some of the highest-scored rides in PBR history. “Not a day goes by that I don’t think about that bull and how much he’s going to be missed around here,” Berger said. “I’d give everything you see here in front of you and start over with him.”
