Breaking the Funny Bone

Well this has nothing to do with health or cancer, but is certainly good for some laughs and is a lot more fun than discussions of either one of those, anyway.

So... during the Ranch Rodeo at our County Fair last night, this fine fellow decided to ride his bronc wearing a green wig, a stuffed bikini top and NO shirt, along with a pillow stuffed with feathers behind his saddle. They tore open the pillow so feathers flew everywhere during the ride, as you can imagine, and he was carrying a real-live cap gun which he used indiscriminately in an apparent attempt to put out the stars. It was all wild and crazy action, so the photo is a bit blurred and doesn't do justice at all to the flying feathers and the crazy grin on his face, but should still give you an idea.
Dave was watching and he agrees with us, Monte, you and Jeff oughta try THIS if you need a point increase next time you ride the broncs.
In case you're wondering, yes he won. Blew all the competition away, actually, even though he'd drawn nearly the poorest bucking horse we saw that night. Proves it's all in the show, I guess... =)

What a great laugh! I wonder how people think to do things like that...

Too. Funny. :o) Maybe, though, we shouldn't be giving Monte such ideas about this. I've seen pictures from Monte's past that lead me to believe he would find himself -- with a *little* coaxing, of course -- in the same place as this guy! It would be quite the site!! :) *heehee*

So Lisa W - if Monte doesn't check out this blog, make sure he at least sees this one and reads these comments.
'Cuz I'd like to know what you think, Mont... do you agree that you'd take on a bronc dressed like this or are you FAR too sane and modest? ;)

Any other opinions out there?

I'll be inviting Monte right over!!! JD had a good laugh picturing MONTE in the saddle as such. It's good for show and funny too, but I don't think JD could ride and "woo" too! Surely, he'll outgrow all of it someday!! :) LW

Oh dear...I hope this doesn't set a precedent for what we are about to see in ranch rodeos. I bet it was pretty funny just because it was totally unexpected! I would also like to hear Monte's comments on this one! :) Have a great day.
