Drew Miller of Tomah, Wisconsin, hangs onto a bull as they leap out of the pen during the Professional Championship Bull Riding competition at the Kane County Fair in St. Charles Friday. Miller has been riding for three years. "You're getting on a bull that's like a tornado. Anything can happen at any time. ... It's a dance; you're just following them."
