Well, that was my first rodeo.

I had my first experience at a rodeo this weekend at the Travis Expo. Center.  Yes, I saw a monkey riding a border collie. Yes, I ate some good food in the BBQ cook-off area.  Yes, I saw drunk women wearing clothes that were 4 sizes to small for them.  Yes, I saw basketball hoops with bent rims with teen boys trying win a stuffed animal for their girls. Yes, I saw lots of kids and family having a good time on the rides in the carnival.  The actual Rodeo was fun too.  Bull riding, bronco, barrel racing, team calf roping, and a few more.  Then high school kids came out to tackle a calf and then pull them across a line.  I guess it’s harder than it looks because some of them were having some problems.  Also there were 5 year olds holding on to sheep as they sprinted around the arena.  That was funny, I don’t care who you are.  Jack Ingram filled in for the strained vocals of Miranda Lambert.  Many people left expecting to hear her.  The crowds were big and fun was had by most everyone I saw.
