Saddle bronc rider Joey Sonnier earns spot at NFR after overcoming years of drug addiction

Joey Sonnier started saddle bronc riding at 18, but at 20 he began using methamphetamine to cope with the work of the rodeos and became addicted. At 39, after years of addiction and a low point that pushed him to rehab, he’s qualified for the National Finals Rodeo. (Rachel Aston/Las Vegas Review-Journal)
