This is totally off topic from motorcycles or other rusty nail stuff, but this is something that just has to be seen to be appreciated.
Every year here in San Antonio there is a do called the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo which is a do to show off livestock and there's a rodeo to boot.
This goes on for about a week and besides just looking at coos, horses, chickens (preferably on the BBQ) there's also music from these country and western singer type people, as well as other forms of entertainment such as calf round-ups, bull riding and other country types of festivities.
Now, there's one that might be of interest to one and all, especially to GBC seeing how she has a few of the woolly creatures roaming around Cubbie Towers to include the fisticuffing Dennis the Dorset Ram.
This event, if you'll clicky on the linky http://youtu.be/m61mP3rwIeg, is called Mutton Bustin' and is open to wee sprogs around 5-7 years old and weighing no more than 55 pounds in real weight, none of this metric weight thank you.
The idea is for the sprogs to be kitted out in safety stuff like a helmet and maybe some gloves and a vest, they then get plopped onto the back of a woolly beastie and holding onto the wool for dear life, they are let loose in an arena just like the bronco and bull riders are too see how long they can last on the back.
Usually it's just for a few seconds, like 1-2, some last longer like 4-5. From the sounds of it it's quite entertaining and hilarious to see and watch.
Now Bodger doesn't normally attend these country rodeo event thingies, but as his lass Teri wants to go see Keith Urban, him that's married to Nicole Kidman, and that show is at 7:30pm, we'll nosey aboot and will be watching the Mutton Bustion' for sure.
And GBC, let Dennis and the other woolly jumpers see this so they can see what fun they're missing out on.

Yeeehawww, crazy little cowboys. I think they do something similar at rodeo time up in Folsom. Say Bodger ,saw a complete Victor for sale on Craigs List-Tahoe area. And a NOS alloy after market tank going for huge bucks.
ReplyDeleteI see tanks and complete Victors on eBay going for silly money HL....that's the problem....people are driving the prices outta the place trying to get that "one" part for the puzzle, especially if it's in near perfect condition.
ReplyDeleteGuess money talks like they say.
