Billings cowboy and saddle bronc rider Dan Mortensen will be inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame this weekend.
Mortensen, a seven-time world champion, was one of six cowboys voted in by the ProRodeo Hall of Fame Selection Committee in March.
Mortensen shares the ProRodeo record for most saddle bronc riding world championships with Casey Tibbs. During Mortensen's final world championship season in 2003, he became the first roughstock cowboy in PRCA history to surpass $2 million in career earnings.
