As I mentioned in my previous post; I went to a rodeo. This is my second rodeo I’ve ever been to, and was tons of fun! We got there almost a hour early so we could get seats (and good thing too; it got
crowded!) So for the first 45 minutes we watched horses and riders warming up. I got some pretty cool pictures!
After that every single horse(I’m not joking!!!) entered the arena. Some were carrying flags and some weren’t; but it was the fullest arena I have ever seen!!
(I attempted to count them and I think there were around 50-something…)
After that and singing the Star-Spangled Banner the broncs came out. One of the first ones out was this gorgeous roan pinto.
He’s my favorite colored horse out of all the ones at the rodeo.
And another bronc
After them; a wagon pulled by an adorable team of ponies put the barrels in place for the barrel racing.
Among other things, there was also calf roping, and bull riding. During the bull riding a guy got tossed off and then there was a crunch. I
think the bull hit his helmet… maybe. Anyway, he was conscious and moving a tiny bit but he was taken out of the area on a stretcher and then put in an ambulance :/. Besides that incident the rodeo went smoothly and was really fun.
