Bryant Reeves Cattle Farmer
Bryan Reeves is known for having a lot of potentials, but ultimately his career ended as his body simply couldn’t handle the injuries anymore after just six seasons. Nicknamed “Big Country”, Reeves decided that he wanted a simpler life, opting to open a cattle ranch after his retirement. Sports glory may have eluded him, but he does know what he’s doing on a farm.
His 300-acre ranch in Oklahoma is still in operation today, ensuring that his nickname is here to stay. While many people fantasize about the life of a pro athlete, others have the talent but have different ambitions for themselves. Reeves is a good example of someone who preferred living somewhat more ordinarily, like the rest of us.
