Seth Saulteaux, a man from Maskwacis, embraced the rodeo life, following in the steps of his bull-riding grandfather Marcel Saulteaux. He was just 14, when he rode his first bull. Ever since, he had set his sights on riding in the Professional Bull Riders circuit. However, those aspirations ended in the qualifier for the Indian National Finals Rodeo (INFR).
