Hey! That's the panhandler chick from downtown!

I went to a Garth Brooks concert in KC once. I wanted to see the live animals and midgets.

Why would I go watch animals tortured for human entertainment?

Depends on how you define "rodeo".

Layzie, Bizzy and Krayzie are gonna roll some beats and bump it hard. They only have one good song, but I would go if they'd play it over and over, and if the show wasn't $20. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daXQN5...

Whit, I won't even touch your comment. I'm having visuals that would get me banned in 2 seconds.

No rodeo is as much fun as Bone Thugs-N-Harmony at the Granada tonight. That's gonna be a stone groove. I bet Guns-N-Knives will be there too. Oh, I know all about rodeos. I'm a Shriner. I put on clown makeup and drive one of those go-karts. The kiddies love me. A clown is actually a very perverse, terrifying thing. But there were even scarier things last time I went to the rodeo. I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin' I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin' I saw a white ladder all covered with water I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children

Hopefully no animals were harmed in the production of this OTS

I was a rodeo clown in a previous life. Either that or I've spent a lot of time with a lot of bullpoop.

I once went to a bar in Oklahoma City that had live bull riding. I was out of place.

When my daughter was about 5, the video store carried rodeo films of riders getting thrown off. She loved to rent those things.

It's been a long time since I've been to a rodeo, but I used to go when I was young. Does it count that I used to live just off Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles?

A few. Pike's Peak or Bust was the best one. Our band marched in the parade (a killer, lol) then later in the week,we were given tickets to the rodeo. Great fun. Remember, fun is what you make of it. If you're with stick in the muds, that's how much fun you'll have. . http://www.coloradospringsrodeo.com/

Wasp nest display? Dang.

No way. You'd have to pay me a lot to sit through one of those things.
