The question should be “What CAN’T You Do With Cheap Mechanical Bulls”. In the case of a mechanical bull, you really get what you pay for. If you order by price alone, you might find yourself with a bull that:
Doesn’t Work Properly
Has no safety features
Is uninsurable
Has no customer service support
Has no parts availability
We can go on and on…but Galaxy has over 20 years of engineering the safest, most reliant mechanical bull on the market. We actually even tried manufacturing in China, but stopped within months because we didn’t like the quality we were seeing. Now we’re proud to say that our mechanical bulls are made at our plant in Port Charlotte, Fl, or at our manufacturing plant in the UK.
Here’s what we think of those Cheap Mechanical Bulls.
Every once in awhile there’s a post on one of the forum’s asking “How does a mechanical bull work?” There are two answers. If the question refers to the mechanics of the bucking machine or mechanical bull, rodeo bull, etc. Then the video below will probably answer a lot of the questions. The Galaxy Multiride Mechanical Bull was designed for portability. An operator needs something that’s easy to set up and even easier to move if they want the highest amount of profits for their business. A good mechanical bull is all about safety first, but then it’s about the ease of operation, set up and removal.
The rodeo bull includes 5 items. The bull itself, the motion base, the inflatable, the blower for the inflatable and the operations console. All of these items can be carried in a van. Well, having set this, they can be transported in a van once the operator learns how to roll up the inflatable. A rolled inflatable looks a bit like a burrito and with a little experience, operators can make these burritos very very small!
Here’s a good example of how the mechanical bull works during set up.
That’s a pretty cool video isn’t it? And does a good job of showing how easy it is to set up the bull.
If the question “How Does a Mechanical Bull Work” pertain to how does it help to increase business, then the answer is even easier. Here are a couple of suggestions for different types of business.
Party Rental Company - The mechanical rodeo bull opens up a whole world of new clients. If the current clients are backyard parties, then the bull will open up schools, festivals, company picnics, colleges and more. If the business clients are corporate, then the bull will put you ahead of the competition. Not only that, the bull can be used indoors year round, so it can take a summer business into a full time business!
Bars & Nightclubs – What better way to boost business than have mechanical bull riding competitions. With the use of the camera inside the bull head (now available from Galaxy Multirides), the ride can be broadcast to everyone in the venue. And with a little innovation can be streamed live on the internet. Can you think of a better way to bring in customers?
Advertising and Promotions - Want something fantastic for your client? Something that people will remember for a long time? The Galaxy multiride mechanical bull has other attachments that go on a motion base. Does your client have a specialized product? Galaxy engineers are experts at designing custom pieces for promotional items. Like, the Tecate Lime for Jose Cuervo or the Mechanical Shark for the movie “Shark Night 3d”.
So, yes…the mechanical bull can help a business, almost any type of business. And it’s SO easy to handle that you can start making money with it the same day it arrives.

If you’re like many other UK bar owners, you’re probably looking for a way to increase your business. Especially this time of year. The holiday season is over, people have spent more money than they should have spent so they’re probably not going to spend money on entertainment unless they have a REALLY good reason to do it.
So, how about a Bad Ass Bull Nightclub & Bar Promotion? What’s a Bad Ass Bar Bull? It’s only the BEST Mechanical Bull on the market for bars and nightclubs. Below is a video of the Bad Ass Bar Bull during it’s debut performance at the IAAPA Attractions Expo 2011.
You can use the Bad Ass Bull for all types of promotions although one of the most frequent promotions is a bull riding contest. You’ll want to drag the contest out for about 6 weeks to give time to build excitement. Try to partner with one of your distributors or vendors to offer a great prize.
Remember, the better the prize, the more excitement you’ll generate. The bar promotion can be held on one of your slower nights of the week, but you might want the championship rides to be on a Saturday night. That way, more people will see, and they’ll all be ready to join the contest the next time around.
Don’t forget to offer some discount pricing on practice nights. You want people in the door again and again to ride your mechanical bad ass bull!
Have a Facebook Page? Make sure to let all your fans know about your new arrival. Post pictures of the bull on your site and encourage riders to encourage their on pictures too!
How about letting your FB fans vote on some of their favorite videos? The more cool videos that are posted, the better chance you have of your promotion going viral! The bad ass bar bull and social media will go hand in hand to drive your profits through the roof.
The new bad ass bar bull is not only exciting, it’s safe too. And if you decide to use the new option of a video camera in the head of the bull, you can stream your video to every TV in your venue! Actually, with just a few extra electronic tweaks, you can stream your riders online for EVERYONE to see! What a great way to promote what you’re doing.
Your customers will love it, your distributors/vendors will love it and you’ll LOVE the increase in your profits.
There are so many nightclub and bar promotions you can try, but why not give some consideration to one that guarantees success! Get your year started the right way, with the bad ass bar bull!
The bad ass bar bull can be found at: Rodeo Bull Nightclub & Bar Promotions. The Rodeo Bull Company also does custom mechanical rides for specific promotions. Need a Bad Ass Pig? Or a Bad Ass Ass????? The Rodeo Bull Company can do it all! Call 941-697-0324 for more info.
Galaxy Multirides exhibited at IAAPA Attractions 2011 for the 13th year in a row and it was our best year ever!
The main talking point of the Galaxy booth was the iPhone / Android controlled mechanical bull we had set up for demonstration.
This was our commitment to innovation of our products, an avenue that can be expanded for future projects which we intend to do. We wanted to show the world what we could do – especially with increased competition at the show. Let’s see them copy this!
The project came about from a request from a milkshake company in Norway called Litago. They wanted to create a ride that incorporated the rider and the audience participating with each other, to have fun. The Ku-Rodeo (Rodeo Cow in Norwegian) was created as you can see in the video below.
The smartphone controlled rodeo bull was one of four new attractions launched by Galaxy at the IAAPA Expo.
Farmyard Collection saw its debut at the Orlando show following the success of Angus McRodeo (the mechanical bull for kids) from 2008. Angus McRodeo, Shane the Sheep, Rocky Horse, Clucky the Chicken and Pippa Pig make up the Farmyard Collection – A group of attachments for smaller children under 8 years old.

Working on the low profile motion base and the small footprint of a 10’ x 10’ inflatable, each attachment can be changed out in under 5 minutes making it perfect for backyard parties, schools and family entertainment centers.
At the front of the booth was our angry bull head, but it’s still the safest in the industry. We mounted our brand new snorting bull head on a board so passers by could touch, squeeze and make the bull blow smoke through its nostrils.
This was a huge hit, with the feature being added onto many orders at the show, as well as entertaining and scaring passers by in the aisles. The electronics on the console have a button incorporated so the operator can make the bull blow smoke (C02) out of its nose as much or as little as they like. A small refillable C02 canister is mounted inside the mechanical bull body and can hold 300 shots of smoke on one charge. See the video below.
Last but not least saw another IAAPA debut, this time for our new Bison / Buffalo attachment. He was on a stand next to our ever popular Hammerhead Shark and the new Bad Ass Bar Bull that we launched at the European Attractions Show in London.
Away from the show floor, all the talk was about the super exclusive Heaven Party.
Galaxy teamed up with Fun Pro Insurance (the leading leisure insurance company) Ninja Jump (the World’s premier inflatable manufacturer) and Extreme Engineering (Worlds greatest rock wall and zip line manufacturer) to throw an amazing party!
(After all we are in the business of fun!)
The Heaven Event Centre saw over 550 guests fill the venue for a night of free drinks,food & dancing (As well as mechanical bull rides and cannon ball blaster to play with!) Needless to say, the night was a huge success and one that will be repeated for years to come. You can see photos and videos of the party on out facebook page below.
To finish off, we just wanted to say a huge, “Thank you,” to everyone that came and
visited our booth. There was rarely a moment when we were not speaking to someone.
We thought at the start of the show that it was our best looking booth for a long time,and thank you to all those who said likewise. Our final thank you is to our wonderful customers who made sure that 2011 IAAPA was out most profitable and record breaking year ever. We are really looking forward to 2012 already and have new games and innovations in the pipeline, so stay tuned!
If you haven’t been watching, you’ve probably missed some GREAT multiride attachments from Galaxy. Check out some of the attachments in our booth at IAAPA 2011.
After the huge success at the European Attractions Show in London, Galaxy’s attention turned to Orlando, Florida and the IAAPA Expo 2011! Each November the world’s entertainment industry descends on the Orange County Convention Center to see the top rides for the upcoming year.
IAAPA, the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions, attracts thousands of exhibitors and attendees each year; and Galaxy Multi Rides is no exception. November is one of Galaxy’s favorite times of the year.
2011 was the 13th year in a row that we have exhibited at IAAPA, and Orlando didn’t let us down – becoming our best ever year at IAAPA! We had record number of mechanical bull sales, surf machine sales & our xtreme board combo just blew everyone away!
However, The main talking point of the Galaxy booth was the iPhone / Android controlled mechanical bull we had set up for demonstration.
This was our commitment to innovation of our products, and although we realize it may not be a huge seller, we wanted to show the world what we could do – especially with increased competition at the show.
