When I was a kid, he was the guy in the Stampede music video. But now that I've got to know about him and more of his music, he's a legend. I don't think I've ever seen someone with so many personal anecdotes from someone who knew them on the internet as much as I see of Chris. Glad you got to know him.

Back when Cowboys were real cowboys and didn’t ride with helmets, face masks etc. most didn’t even wear vests either. I remember those days. The Charles Sampson, Jim Sharp, Tuff Hedeman, Cody Lambert, Cody Custer, Ty Murray, Ted Nuce, Jerome Davis, Troy Dunn, Bubba Dunn, J.W. Hart & Don Gay days of Cowboy’n! They are the true Legends of the sport. Of course we can never forget the one and only Lane Frost!
