Days of '47 seconds of excitement!

Thursday, July 17, 2008


Yes. Me. Joe. At the rodeo. For those who know me you know that you're about as likely to find me at a rodeo as you are to find a dollar in a dogs butt cheeks. I use that analogy because I actually did find a dollar on a doggy bum once. But that's a different story for another time. Erika did get me to go to the rodeo. Beverly is all bout horses and I thought it might be cool to see a cowboy impaled by a a bull horn. It ended up being a decent experience.
It seemed a bit overpriced and not quite as exciting as I was hoping. Nobody was even injured. Oh well. The highlight of the show was a cowboy getting a couple buffalo to climb on top of the his trailer. I'm sure it takes a lot of patience and know-how to accomplish something like that, but it's not the most exciting thing to watch.
The crowd was pretty entertaining though. I even saw one lady, er, woman entertain herself for the whole 2 hour show with what she could find in all of her different holes, crevices, and cracks.
I must say though, horses are pretty magnificent animals. Humans are very strange. Will I ever go to another rodeo? Most likely. I'm an easy-going guy and can find fun pretty much no matter what I'm doing or where I am.
