Death:On July 30, 1989, at the Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo in Cheyenne, Wyoming, after completing a successful 85-point ride on a Brahma bull named "Takin Care of Business", Lane dismounted and landed in the dirt. The bull turned and hit him in the side with his horn, breaking several of his ribs. He initially rose to his feet, yelling at Tuff Hedeman for help. As he was running and signaling for help, he fell to the ground, causing his heart and lungs to be punctured by the broken ribs. He was rushed to Memorial Hospital. On the discovery that his heart injury was irreparable, the doctors pronounced him dead. No autopsy was performed. He posthumously finished third in the event. Takin Care of Business went on to appear in the 1990 National Finals Rodeo. He was retired in the 1990's and put out to stud until he died in 1999.Lane is buried next to his hero and mentor, Freckles Brown, at Mount Olivet Cemetery in Hugo in Choctaw County, Oklahoma.
