Freckles Brown had done a lot of living in his 46 years when he stepped into the arena in Oklahoma City in December of 1967.
He was just a month shy of his birthday, which we remember this week. Brown was born January 18, 1921, so by the late 1960s he was a couple of decades older than some of his bullriding competitors.
We don’t know if Brown’s life flashed before his eyes that night in ‘67, when he had his legendary ride of Tornado, but if he had, he would have remembered quite a few twists and turns.
