    I did big features on a couple bareback riders and a couple bull riders. Guy that didn't drive around with a horse or a bull in the back of their pick up.

    Of the seven events in the NFR, three use stock provided by the rodeo. Steer wrestling, team roping, tie-down roping and barrel racing. I don't know what the shit steer roping is. I guess my imaginary rodeos, and, oddly, the NFR, didn't have it. Please, enlighten us, though.

    "Most", in terms of how many events require competitors bring horses, was an exaggeration, but only barely.

    I never said I was a cowboy. Never said the features I did were the extent of my rodeo coverage and/or experience. I covered about 20 rodeos. Saw a lot of clowns. Don't know why this bothers you so much.

    And you totally forgot to mention the calf and ram scrambles. Two other events with rodeo-supplied stock. You should be ashamed. I mean, if we're including non-NFR events...

    Seriously man, you're throwing a fit over what here?

    You appearing to be ignorant and saying that cowboys/girls didn't need their own stock.

    the event takes place at prca rodeos. the more you post, the more you appear to be a fool. maybe you should stop.

    15 minutes, of course.

    Unless there's some discussion of the opening, I suggest you all saddle up and ride off into the sunset.

    Everything else aside, has anyone heard anything about this gig at all? Who is leaving, if it's been filled yet, etc.?

    I'm curious for a bit more info on it, if anyone has any insight.

    They were trying to fill it with a goat from up near Great Falls, but apparently they were supplied with a ram from right outside Bozeman. Crazy stuff
