— "Worlds Greatest Bucking Horse" —

A Legend in His Own Time
As He Is Today
Midnight was born in Canada, the property of Tim McNabb. McNabb's "Door Key" brand was Midnight's mark throughout his life. He bucked on the American Rodeo circuit from 1923 to 1933 at which time he was retired by his owners Ed McCarty and Vernon Elliott. Only nine men managed to stay aboard in all those years.

This lifesize monument was sculptured by
Jack Bryant
and presented to the City of Fort Worth
January 19, 1984
by those here named.
