Gilliam resides around one hour outside of Dallas and already made the three-hour journey to Horseshoe Bossier City for the opening event of the series, which took place this past Tuesday. The event was a $135 Pro Bounty event and Gilliam ended up agreeing to a four-way chop with three others, one of which was his brother, Brandon. The four then played out the tournament to declare a tournament winner and GIlliam found himself the last man standing, earning himself a ring in the process.
