It's not a matter of degradation, it's a matter of pay scale... just because some prince pays a man ten gold for a jape doesn't mean he's intelligent, and just because one is a fool doesn't mean he's an ignorant buffoon.

I'm familiar :P

*sigh*

Soccer is awesome.

Rugby is better.  People die.

And football can now die for all I care.

I think, if I could ice skate, I would LOVE to play hockey.

Bull Riding is still the best. Takes some huevos to do that

I went to a rodeo. We were in the front seats.  Well, they were benches, but whatever.  We were right by the fence.

 

Anyways, the bull bucked the guy off, and went charging around, alongside the fence.  One of the guys who's there to help the rider get to safety tried to get up the fence and out of the way and was hit hard.  He went to the hospital.  He survived.  But I was right there.  Saw it all.

 

Crazy fun.

I had a friend who went to Nationals in rodeo (I know, not A rodeo), but that's the extent of my experience with rodeos.  I've never been to one.  Never seen anything like that live.

 

Can imagine it was thrilling, though.

They'll sell you the whole seat, but you'll only need the edge

You know, I'm adding this onto my massively long "To Do" list that I've created since joining DM. ;)

Mostly, we weren't even on the bench, but leaning on the fence, looking over.  :P

*is taking avid notes on aphid dung*

something like that

Oh, good, someone who knows what it feels like to have never gone to a rodeo.

 

*takes FB by his shirt*

Say you've never been to one!

*releases FB*

 

Okay, good.

 

You're okay then.

heheehe.,...*smug grin*

Flab is Unglish, he doesn't even know what a cowboy hat looks like.

It looks like a drunk grape.

I have ridden tried to ride several smaller ranked bulls. Just not my natural grace. I'm too tall and too unbalanced. but yeah, rodeo is awesome, well, the roughstock competitions, and the calf roping  ;D

I know what a cowboy hat looks like...

It's a hat with a star on it.

And oft be the star migratory.
