Missed the action this weekend? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Under the lights of Honda Center, three days of high-stakes rides shook up the PBR Camping World Team Series standings. From the Gamblers’ streak to the Freedom’s statement shutout and Arizona’s record-tying weekend, every out mattered. If you missed any of the action, here’s the rundown from Anaheim!

On the PBR Team Series...

ANAHEIM, DAY 1
The Austin Gamblers (14-4) stayed red-hot, picking up their sixth straight win by defeating the Oklahoma Wildcatters (7-11) 343.25-249.75. Sage Steele Kimzey (88.75), Jose Vitor Leme (89.75) and Callum Miller (87.75) led the way. Oklahoma answered with scores from Wingson Henrique da Silva, Josh Frost and Cort McFadden, but it wasn’t enough.

Elsewhere, the Missouri Thunder walked off the New York Mavericks 258.75-172.5 behind Boudreaux Campbell’s 86.25-point closer, while the Florida Freedom surged past Carolina 256.75-87.25 behind John Crimber’s 88.5. The Texas Rattlers blanked Nashville 85.25-0 with Brady Fielder sealing the lone score. Arizona nearly went perfect, topping Kansas City 331.75-256 behind four qualified rides.

ANAHEIM, DAY 2
The Gamblers (15-4) kept rolling, going 4-for-5 in a 343.25-84.5 win over the Kansas City Outlaws (8-11). Callum Miller, Dalton Kasel, Lucas Divino and Kimzey all converted to extend Austin’s streak to seven.

The Carolina Cowboys (7-12) snapped a five-game skid with a 253.25-89 win over New York thanks to Jess Lockwood’s 89.75 game-winner. Florida edged Oklahoma 175.75-87.5 with Crimber’s 88.25 on Love County sealing it. Texas outlasted Missouri 261.25-255.5 on Trace Redd’s dramatic walk-off, while Arizona topped Nashville 339.75-85.75 with four riders covering.

ANAHEIM, DAY 3
The Freedom (15-5) delivered the weekend’s headline, dominating the No. 1 Gamblers 434.25-0 for their second perfect game of 2025. Thiago Salgado, João Ricardo Vieira, João Lucas Campos, Elizmar Jeremias and Crimber all converted to claim the league lead.

Arizona (15-5) tied a league record with 11 rides in a weekend after edging New York 254.5-246.75, capped by Luciano De Castro’s winning trip on Electric Kitty. Carolina took its second win of the weekend, 177-170.25 over Kansas City, while Missouri edged Nashville 173.25-170.5 in a re-ride-filled showdown. Texas blanked Oklahoma 169.75-0 for its fifth straight victory.

With Anaheim in the books, the standings show three teams tied at 15-5 — Freedom, Gamblers and Ridge Riders — with Florida on top via points tiebreaker.

North of the Border...

Canada’s top riders returned home as Dakota Buttar pulled double duty, serving as both rider and event promoter for his namesake Energy Dodge Dakota Buttar Invitational in Kindersley, Saskatchewan, Sept. 5-6. The stop came in the middle of one of the tightest championship races in recent PBR Canada history. Jared Parsonage tightened the gap with a 2-for-2 outing in North Battleford, while contenders Jake Gardner, Garrett Green and Jordan Hansen all remain in striking distance as the title hunt heats up heading toward the Finals.

On the Challenger Series...

In Kennewick, Washington, fans packed the Toyota Center for two nights of Challenger Series action. On Friday, Kyle Eaton stole Round 1 with an 85-point ride on Zeus, earning 28 points. Saturday night, Andy Guzman delivered in the championship round aboard Brass Monkey for 86 points, clinching his second event win of the 2025 season. Eaton followed with a second-place finish, while Conner Halverson, Wyatt Moulton and hometown cowboy Justice Forsythe rounded out the Top 5.
