Corey Davis can control a woman's thighs with the flip of a switch. Known as The Bullmaster, Davis has been operating the mechanical bull at Tequila Ranch at the Seminole Hard Rock since the restaurant opened in December 2004. For the 31-year-old Miami Beach resident, a typical day at work is never boring.

What's the craziest thing that has happened on the bull?

There's too many to count. On Cinco de Mayo, one young lady wanted to outdo all the other ladies and stripped down to her bra and thong while riding the bull. Then, another woman took off her clothes and hopped on the bull, and the two of them started making out. Instead of Girls Gone Wild, it was Girls Gone Bull.

What is it about that bull that drives women wild?

I think the ladies love the attention. A shy girl will change her mind when she sees a hot girl get on the bull. She'll walk back over to me and say, "I can do that."

What's the story with guys' riding the bull?

I usually go with the crowd. If they want a guy off the bull, I'll buck him. I also do a trick where I toss a handkerchief into the ring and then make the rider land on it.

What's the secret to bull-riding?

For the women, just look sexy and let me do the rest. As for the guys, you better be a crowd pleaser, or you're getting thrown. You've also got to be able to dance and have rhythm to ride.

How many riders have you had on the bull at one time?

Three women.

How many people ride the bull on any given night?

On the weekend, the line is crazy. There'll be over 100 women in line from 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. Everyone who rides must sign a waiver, so we keep track by that.

Have any celebrities ridden the bull?

Matt Damon and his wife rode the bull together. Matt Dillon and Matthew Perry from Friends hung out to watch. Lil Jon also came in one night trying to act low-key, but once he saw the ladies get on the bull, he was egging them on to shake their asses.

What are the best bull-riding songs?

For the women, I like "Don't Cha" by The Pussycat Dolls or "Kiss" by Prince. I can make the bull dance in time with a song. If a guy takes his shirt off, I'll have the DJ play, "I'm Too Sexy." Sometimes, I'll toss a hardhat into the ring, and the DJ spins "YMCA."

Has anyone gotten really hurt riding the bull?

No. We've had a couple of guys jam their thumbs, but that's because they were trying to be real cowboys and refused to let go.

Are you single?

Yeah, I couldn't have a mate and be doing this.
